Frame Color
A street rod builder told me he paints is frames a dark charcoal color with a real bright metallic in it (if the customer hasn't spec'd body color etc.) instead of black because it doesn't show the dust like black. I wiped one of the frames that looked clean with my finger and was surprised how dusty it really was.
The sparkle of the bright metallic keeps the paint from looking dull with a light coat of dust. Metallic added to black would work to but not as well because the black contrasts the dust more than the charcoal color. Just thought I would share this one
