Satin black is far easier to rattlecan as opposed to gloss or even semi gloss, will come out much less stripey. If you take your time it can look flawless. I personally have had a few flat black vehicles over the years, loved the way they looked even though it gave off that "cheap crappy" image. Kind of has a certain "badass" appeal, like a stealth fighter. And true story, they are actually much harder for cops to get a laser reading on (though I don't think it has much effect on regular radar). Go for it
