Could any tell me what black finish was applied to the sills on the Rover 25 at the factory. I think it would have been either matt or a satin finish?
Thanks!

Re: Black Sills
I would say that it is definitely not matt.
I have used a standard gloss black spray for localised touching up on one of our 25s and it has been a good match. The textured 'stone chip' paint beneath the top coat stops the gloss from looking too, um, glossy!

Re: Black Sills
Thanks, It is just for touching up so fingers crossed I'll order a can of black gloss and see how it goes!
