Nice looking Matte Pearl paints out there?


Recommended Posts

Matte paint still has a nice shine to it, it just doesn't allow any harsh specular reflections. As said above, if you use a pearl like frost/ice white, you can make the matte finish look a lot nicer, as IMO, the matte paint on its own in GTA is sh*t.

Matte:

adjective

1.

(of a color, paint, or surface) dull and flat, without a shine.

"matte black"

 

 

 

 

 

Example: Matte black, doesn't allow specular reflection like gloss paint, but allows 'some' light to reflect, leaving it with a 'smooth' look.

 

 

The matte paint in GTA doesn't look this nice without a pearl, even if it's a more subdued pearl, like silver.

My cavalcade with matte black, lime pearl, and lime metallic seconday looks good, imo. Matte red and torino pearl looks great on my pcj. Midnight purple matte and...ultra blue (?) pearl is good on my Thrust.

 

The best ones are dark mattes with brighter pearls.

Matte Black with Torino Red Pearl.

I have a few good ones for you. Personally, I only like to add a pearlescent to matte paints if it enhances the colour.

  • Matte midnight purple and Ultra Blue/Nautical Blue pearlescent.
  • Matte Dark Red and Torino Red pearlescent
  • Matte Straw Brown and Cream pearlescent
  • Matte Grey and Silver.

If used properly, matte and pearlescent can produce some great colours.

Matte silver with a silver pearl looks boss on a Zentorno. I have one like that.

 

The trick to matte paint is to lessen the matte. So red with red silver with silver. Bright green on green or silver on green etc.

Slightly OT but whatever happened to the Paint Jobs thread that used to exist?

 

I was sure I had followed the topic but it no longer in the Topics I follow section.

 

OT: Have you tried Matt Purple with Ice White Pearl and Matte Black Secondary

 

Others I like are Matte Black with Matte Orange and Matte Black with Ice White Pearl and Matte Lime Green secondary

 

Also Matte Dark Blue with Sunrise Orange Pearl Secondary is good too.
