Hi guys, newbie here.

I would like to have a matte carbon finish, but i really don't find this much information online and i thought i might as well ask the pro's on this forum what would be the best coarse of action.

1)  Wet sand it with  400-800, (1200?) done

or

2) wet sand it with  400'ish grid and then spray a matte lacquer on there (if so what lacquer would u use, a car lacquer or just a normal lacquer for wood, metal, plastic purposes?)
=> would this one do Motip acryl matte lacquer?


thanks in advance Mitch

Matt coating will give you the best result, but you need to have a practice in matt coating and have clear environment (spray booth preferred) to obtain surface without any inclusion.
Please remember that you will not be able to polish imperfections on matt surface and you will need to repeat the process if you will notice some inclusion on lacquer layer.
