My Mostly Original Paint 70 SS L-78 Tailpan is definitely more "gloss" than a Satin or Even more gloss than a semi.....(picture attached) but Brian (and his painter) have the most experience at mixing this shade of black.....Chuck S/Seattle

Muscle Car Reveiw July 01, pg 35 states "every original-paint Camaro I've documented has a gloss black rear tailpan". Article was by Brain Henderson. Then again in Jerry MacNeish's book it states on pg 206, Rear tail lamp panel - semi gloss black.

On every low mile unrestored black tail panel car the paint was gloss black. At the reunion two years ago there were four original paint X66 Yenko's. All were gloss. Joes Harrell SS 427 is gloss and my friends unrestored BB/RS in Latrobe is gloss. I can think of many more that I have seen. Never saw a satin original yet. I'll bet Jerry will tell you that he has been converted on this issue...BKH

Brian, Just to clarrify your answer and put this subject to bed once and for all......do you have your painter use a FULL (unflattened)Single Stage GLOSS Black on these SS rear panels OR do you flatten the gloss any at all and if so what percentage?????.......Thank You, Chuck/Seattle
