Hey guys

Im in the middle of making a Dark Knight suit at the moment and i want it looking as good as close to the movie suit as i can (dont we all...).
Could anyone possibly help me track down a matte black spray over coat for the urethane / rubber parts?

Im not really sure what its called even :\

We have one, Sprayonspray from warpoo, but its fairly shiny. In the movie it has a matte finish.
Could anyone give me a hand or point me in the right direction?

Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advanced

Oooo, no. Plastidip is a no no on urethane fellas. That's for latex only.

Yeah don't your time plasti-dipping Urethane, it will just peel off.

There aren't many paints that stick to Urethane rubber.

You can use acrylic ink thinned with acentone and alcohol. But it's more for colour rather than finish.

I have no idea how it works on urethane, but I've used SEM spray dyes before and they do well. The lowest sheen black they have is satin. Again though, I don't know how it would do on urethane.
