Post by: tomarse on April 04, 2006, 21:40:12: black is a good colour for a landy! :)

I did mine in hammerite hammered black, as i liked the almost metallicy look that the hammered stuff gives.
It is now a semi-gloss/matt black finish

Post by: smog on April 09, 2006, 03:32:42: :twisted: Had to go with matt black cos my hybrid is matt black and looks great, that said it will take on a greyish look within a year so when it does crack open another tin of military matt black paint grab a gloss type roller and pray for a good dry day and jobs done in an hour or so.
