Powder Coating Lustre

[tstepp920]

I am having a the air cleaner, air intake nozzle, carb cooling fan, radiator shroud, radiator screen, and battery tray support powder coated black. What level of sheen is correct? Glossy or semi glossy?

It's a matter of preference, I think semi-gloss looks better.

Yes definately Semi!

I did gloss as I think it is easier to keep shiny......like Mike said matter of preference

I also did gloss on the air cleaner, and other parts, but semi gloss would be more inline with OEM.

shiny full gloss for sure. way easier to wipe down. with a thin constant film of dust it will look semi gloss.

Nah, shiny gloss won't look right at the antique auto show

I had a few items done in black at a local shop that has 4 levels of "shine" available - I chose "Satin" and like it, as it somewhat hides surface imperfections, but each to his own fer sure...
