Hi everyone? I was thinkin about painting my 64 chevy truck which is white on upper half of cab and the rest in black primer. I want to have it sprayed in a satin color but not in black. Is there like a dark satin blue. Almost as in a black look but just in a very dark satin blue? thanks guys

you can tint epoxy primer, also add flattening agent to any paint

How about trying BPS Tractor paint. It comes in 'Low Gloss' Black and will protect the body!

Here's a brand to think about. It comes in a bunch of colors and it's UV resistant as opposed to primer.
