Phantom Black Owners enter

If/when I ever repaint my bird i'm considering PBM instead of Gloss black. have you guys ever compared your PBM against a black camaro/ta/vette? Does the PBM look dark enough to be black or does the metallic fleck make it kinda grayish? Also, does the metallic help hide dust? That's one thing i noticed when i had a navy blue metallic bird-even when it was a bit dirty, the metallic would shine through

It doesn't hide dust at all, shows everything just like a black car (swirls included). Looks as black as any other black out there to me. Never parked next to a non metallic black before but it doesn't look gray.

I had PBM on my 04 GTO....but after putting her into the last hill

We went with Ford Gloss Black...Ford Indian Ink....I never liked the flake in the PBM myself.....she is blacker and shinier than Oprahs ass now

Not a big fan of the PBM. I dont have a good reason...i just think a gloss black would look much better on my car.

kinda agree on that .. to much metal flake in it up close , but most of the time it looks gloss black ....

Pics of a car don't do it justice anyway-i haven't been around enough clean goats to appreciate the luster of PBM, but like i said, my NBM ws.6 looked soooo gorgeous

Pollen is wicked bad up there...

ha! yes, this is true, keep her lookin good for me bro! She's your baby now!

IMO it's the best of both worlds. Metalic up close, but looks gloss black from a ways away. You might get some of the grey effect every once in a while.
However, when it's clean you don't see much of either. All you see is the reflection of everything else.
