What color works best to repaint the black trim for the front and rear window, cowl panel etc.

Gloss black, satin black, flat black?
And should it be clear coated?

Im thinking gloss may look cheap
Flat or satin idk
I just want the right look

for a foxbody

Several coats of Sem trim black #39143 and lay the final coat on heavy. Ken's Custom Auto has used the same paint on several high dollar Fox paint jobs in recent months. I used Sem's on my Fox with excellent results. BTW, You can by it at Summit's showroom in Sparks for about $5.00 less a can than anywhere in California.

Dip it in brake fluid and let it soak for a while. Itll do the work for u, then just hose it off with water.

SEM TRIM BLACK is the way to go. Be careful u don't get "Trim Paint," that one is gloss.
