Stik Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Very nice! There is no denying matt paint looks stunning. I just worry it'd be hard to keep clean. You'll have to tell us how the first wash goes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Is that paint or a wrap. I considered a satin pain finish on mine but could not live with not being able to polish it (yes I am sad) Swissvax does some cleaning gear specifically for satin/matt finishes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyfox Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Very nice! There is no denying matt paint looks stunning. I just worry it'd be hard to keep clean. You'll have to tell us how the first wash goes... Matt and Satin are a fecker to keep clean. On black satin I used Autoglym bumper care, worked a treat. I haven't cleaned the new white satin yet but it certainly hides any bodywork issues unlike the black. Having said that it looks the nuts, well done on your purchase, enjoy.

Eric Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Is that one of the Stratton Elises? Have to say I was really tempted by one of those and went over to get the full story from Guy Munday in person, but got cold feet after seeing "Stratton Motor Sport" as the manufacturer on the V5. Looks good though matey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digi Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Bought from Murray's in Scotland, full paint.As for cleaning, no problem actually easier than a gloss car.There are special products, so it is not a problem keeping the car in pristine condition.When I bought it I thought it would be a Marmite colour, you either hate it or you like it, the fact is it gets a lot of attention and to date assuming they honest no one has said they do not like it.Thanks for the compliments guys, just one mod at present, I have had the interior fully carpeted.I will adding a midi sub as sound system is not up to scratch.

P4N Lotus Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I do think it would look incredible with the gloss stipes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbnutz Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Yes - I like the gloss black stripes with it too. As for adding a sub - I'd really like to add one to mine - but so that it is not in the way - so if you manage it and its a worthy improvement, let us know.
