Matt is the chalkboard black, satin is like matt but with a sheen over it...

satin won't instantly get fingerprints etc on it, but for the proper rat chalkboard look you need matt!

the only way to do it so it is clean able is to get it done in base coat clear and add matting adgent to the laquer or it will be verry hard to clean

Matt black is just crap imo, looks fookin shite, not even sleeper on things, just like you can't afford proper paint or you want to be a drifter!

Satin is nice mate, Series 1 bits were all Satin from the Factory IIRC
