Polishing Matte Black Paint Work?
Say I have a bike with Matte Black paintwork. There are some small age related marks on it. How would I go about removing them?
Ordinarily I would just use some T-Cut polish on gloss paintwork, but as its a matte black I don't want it to start to shine I just want to tidy it up a little. |

If you polish it it won't be matt

Re: Polishing Matte Black Paint Work?
A Matte paint sealant should do the trick. You want something that has 'fillers' in it to cover up the marks ideally
