Ultra Matte Car Paint

Ultra Matte Car Paint with 0.5% Gloss

Ultra Matte Car Paint is the most extremely matte finish within car paint. With an ultra-low gloss level of 0.5%, the paint has a completely dull, almost light-absorbing appearance. This finish has the same matte experience as military vehicles and industrial applications. There is no visible reflection; the surface looks raw, powerful, and minimalist. Ultra matte car paint is intended for those who really want something different than standard paint finishes. As a specialist in car paint, CROP delivers custom ultra matte car paint, professionally mixed according to the original color code of your vehicle.

What makes ultra matte car paint unique

The unique thing about ultra matte car paint is the extremely low gloss level of 0.5%. Where standard matte car paint has a 10% gloss level, ultra matte goes much further. The surface absorbs almost all the light, giving the color a deep, flat, and industrial character. This finish is often chosen for a tough, military, or industrial look. The result is uncompromisingly matte, without gloss, without reflection. Precisely because it is so pronounced, ultra matte paint requires perfect preparation and application.

Different qualities of car paint in ultra matte

There are different qualities of car paint in ultra matte. From very fast-drying paint to a hard and scratch-resistant paint that is resistant to chemicals, acids, and UV sunlight. The types of ultra matte car paint are:

• 1K ultra matte car paint is user-friendly and fast-drying. For protection against UV radiation and external influences, it is usually finished with an ultra matte clear coat. This maintains the extremely low gloss level.
• 2K ultra matte car paint cures by adding a hardener. This creates a stronger, chemically resistant paint layer that is better suited for intensive use. This 2K car paint system is especially chosen by professionals who desire maximum durability without compromising the ultra matte appearance.

Ultra matte car paint in spray can and tin

At CROP, ultra matte car paint is available in different packaging, so there is always a suitable solution for your project. Choose a spray can when you want to work on loose parts, small objects, or spot repair. Ideal for DIYers or quick repairs. If you work professionally or want to spray larger surfaces smoothly, then you choose ultra matte car paint in a tin, to be processed with a paint sprayer. Both a tin and spray can of ultra matte car paint offer maximum control over layer thickness and final result. Regardless of the packaging, we make the paint in color according to the official color recipe of your car, so you can touch up or repaint without color difference.

Is ultra matte paint standard on cars?

Ultra matte paint is absolutely not the standard on cars. Factory original, vehicles are almost always executed in high gloss. Ultra matte paint is only applied by specific brands or in special editions, often inspired by military vehicles or industrial designs. Due to the extremely dull appearance, ultra matte is especially intended for people who want something unique or pursue a tough, robust, and industrial look. It is a conscious choice for character and exclusivity.

Can you polish ultra matte car paint?

Ultra matte car paint cannot be polished. As soon as you start polishing, gloss appears. This immediately removes the ultra matte effect and you get unwanted shiny spots. Due to the extremely low gloss level of 0.5%, such differences are noticed very quickly. Damages can therefore not be repaired by polishing. In most cases, the affected part is repainted to maintain the uniform ultra matte appearance.

How to correctly spray ultra matte car paint

With ultra matte car paint, the right spraying technique is crucial. Always apply multiple thin layers. Too thick layers of paint can cause the ultra matte paint to shine. This happens when the paint is applied too wet and the matting effect is reduced. Ensure a perfectly prepared surface: clean, grease-free, and evenly sanded. Work in a dust-free room and maintain the correct spray distance and air pressure. A consistent layer build-up is essential to achieve the same ultra low gloss level of 0.5% everywhere.
