Title: Shiny sides, Colour question
Post by: Gary72 on November 30, 2009, 07:43 PM

What colour is the black, I have never had a set. But from sets I can remember it's like a semi-gloss black or satin black not gloss.

Sorry
On shiny side rims the inside part is painted black. I have no rim to compare with, But from memory the sets I've seen and pictures I've seen the black is not a gloss finish. I'm trying to find out what finnish it is.Matt/ Satin, Semi-gloss, Could even be annodized :)
