difference between 'blacks'
 
matt, satin, gloss whats the difference between them all?

wanting to smoke headlights and foglights, not sure which to use
which would turn out darkest?

matt is a more flat colour, doesnt shine or anything. Gloss is more of a shiney black cant really remember what satin is like so i wont describe it for fear of gettin it wrong lol
