Vent Window paint
I have rebuilt a few vent windows and have been using automotive base and clear. I am wondering if the factory windows had a gloss finish or mat? I haven't seen an original set that was in good enough shape.

Re: Vent Window paint
Well mine where done by Precision and they don't have a clear, it's just a black finish with a very small amount of gloss to it.

Re: Vent Window paint
I saw that they were just using a semi gloss, or matt...wonder what OEM was....matt would be easier for sure
