Which paint

We're tearing down our seats and removing the headrest bit for low backs.

We've got em cleaned up, primed and a couple top coats on them but we used gloss black.

My brother thinks they look fine, I think they look to shiny. Anyone know what was originally on the frames? I'm guessing semi-gloss.

For the black frames I have used Rust-Olium Satin Black. The Simi gloss black is good too but it`s a bit more shiny.

Depends what year seat frame you restoring but the L43 Grey Black paint that WBW sells matches the black used in my '74 Super.
