Here is my home baked PreB. I used Satin Black, but I "overbaked it" for a harder finish and ended up more like "Mil-Spec Gray". I buffed all flats with Steel wool and left the rounds in a more matte finish. I did not touch the top, which does not yeld any glare. It looks best in daylight, but not in direct sunlight. I made some errors which you cannot pick up unless you know what to look for. I thought about doing another detail strip, and recoat/bake for a darker black, but I'm going to leave it go for now.

The first time is a bugger, but it can be done. I used as Passche VL airbrush and toaster oven. I also used both a large air compressor, and cans. A small hooby compressor would have been much better.
