Garages can be painted very dark.
Garage 54 first compares matte black spray paint from the store against a homemade mixture of carbon black, basecoat and basecoat. The team’s stuff is darker and they plan to paint the entire vehicle with it.

Carbon black can be difficult to grind into small pieces. It comes in large chunks. The material could clog your paint gun if it wasn’t done. This is a tedious process that must be done by hand. A coffee grinder might work better to create so much pigment.
The video clearly shows that Garage54‘s homemade painting is not nearly as dark than Vantablack. However, for something you can mix in your garage, the results are impressive. It is striking how stark the contrast is to snow.
The host suggests at the end that the team is going to experiment to find out if a darker result can be achieved in the garage. We are eager to see what they come up, or if the lights turn off.
