Matte finishes are different from other automotive paints and need special care to maintain their appearance. Typical gloss paints use a high gloss clear-coat finish that reflects light and gives a shiny appearance. A matte finish uses a different coating that diffuses light, providing a unique ?flat? finish. Unlike a typical high gloss clear-coat, damage to the matte coating (such as scratches or wear from aggressive cleaning) cannot be polished or buffed out. Once an area is damaged or becomes shiny, the ?flat? appearance cannot be restored.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2015/MC-10150618-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2015/MC-10150618-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10150618","components":[{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"CHRYSLER","model":"300","year_from":2015,"year_to":2015,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2015_chrysler_300"]},{"make":"FIAT","model":"500","year_from":2016,"year_to":2016,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2016_fiat_500"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
