Default Re: Opinions on this Suede Paint...

This was an ongoing process and took a little experimentation.
Here is what I did... but I would suggest you spray some test panels before jumping off the deep end.
I used a textured rustoleum paint spray can available at Lowes for the suede effect.
Initially it was too rough and had what in my opinion was a little too much sheen. SO I sprayed (from a gun) FLAT black over the top which filled in the pits a little and evened out sheen... (I didn't take any photos of this yet)
