Mine is the Eurojet trim black. It's the first time I've used SEM, and def won't be the last as I have ALOT of interior plastics to paint.

scoop it up while you can,they're replacing it with trim black ultra line.they've always been rather close just they have more options compared to the original line that was just trim black and euro.they've kept it to satin,matte and gloss.the matte is closest to the trim version that Joe and yourself have been using.so not all is lost.

I've just used the regular Trim Black. It occasionally comes out a little bit too flat IMO but it still looks good. I did some motorcycle tins on a Harley Davidson with it for a customer probably 3 or 4 years ago and I saw the bike just before Thanksgiving last year and it still looked good.

i agree,I perfer a stain finish over the flat.a little sheen is nice.some flats out there are almost chalky and cheap looking.but everyone's different.

Agreed, it can't be too glossy or too flat. If you lay the Trim Black on wet it comes out just about perfect. But its durability is really it's best quality IMO.

I installed new bumpers, and window trim. It was a landau top car, I had to remove the back window and attach the special screws for the trim clips.

Did some cleaning on the engine harness to see what work still needs to be done, tinkered with the engine accessories, found out my Fleaby grill is a cracked up piece of:poop:. Now I have more motivation to sell off that unneeded parts unless some one has an '81 in fair to good condition to trade for same condition '83-'86 grill. Oh yea, entertained the Jr. Mechanic my shifting the 4 speed to show him how it works. Some minor adjustments could be made to the linkage but I can speed shift it pretty good.
