Out of curiosity, did you go back to stock paint because the rubber coatings didn't look good up close? I was debating painting my car with a rubberized coating but from what i gather most people are only satisfied with it from at least 10 feet away.
OR, are you just very easily bored and need to change it constantly

Eventually, I went back to the stock black.Oh and up close, the product looks ok to me. Not smooth like paint of course, but if sprayed by a pro, it still looks good. There seems to be some professional products out there that are able to reproduce the gloss/clear coat look of paint. Looks smooth to me in pictures. I haven't seen one in person. I, personally, like the satin look. Not full on matte, but rather has a little sheen to it. On the white color in my signature, you can kind of see the sheen on the rear quarter panel.

Love this car with the top down.
By the way, the V8 on this car was the best money spent on it. Really makes it special.
