I'll try again (poll novice )

Simple question, which would you prefer, gloss (with the wheel in question below) or a matt finish (no piccy sorry) ?

Voted gloss, only due to cleaning problems with matt.
Depends on the car though - for a 'proper' 4x4 then matt every time.

unless your building a Batmobile go gloss as it will just look like you can't be bothered washing them

Matt (actually Satin) would be my preference

another vote for gloss, matt and satin would be an ideal primer for brake dust.....

Defo matt look much better especially if you have white bodywork. IMO

A man of taste

Most of my mates picked matt / satin, yet the forum went the other way.

I went Matt and they would look cracking with the blue and white in your avatar

We finish housings at work in gloss semi gloss and once upon a time in matt. We gave up on the matt because it marks even from a finger print so perhaps a semi gloss may be a compromise.

PS its also called sitting on the fence!
