When I looked into it you can't use any glossy/wax products to clean or wash it with polish it or anything like that,

It's not so much hard cleaning it but bird lime etc will be a pain to get off.

All you can basically do is get a hose pipe an some basic car shampoo. That's it lol

If your doing it with rattle cans it can be a right pain to get an even coat but done properly they it looks the dogs doodahs

IIRC it needs to be done with paints that have a satin/matt finish lacquer over the top, as if you do it by hand with rattle cans it will never look nice, as it shows all the smallest water marks etc..

not necessarily true imo. also you dont want to use matt black you want satin black. matt you cant clean satin you can. the other bonus with satin black is any scuffs or touch ups blend straight in lol
