NOT FINAL JUST A TEST!!

 

I was unable to get anyone to PS black on the wheels out of the 4 sites I posted on so I decided to use my left over flat black kylon spray paint with a single coat on and took the masking tape.

 

you can see a before and after and two after shots after the test paint.

Flat black with clear = glossy black.

Unless you get matte finish clear, which they do make, but I've never used or seen anything it was painted with so I can't say how well it works or looks.

 

A flat finish will be harder to keep clean and will require a "delicate" touch to prevent scuffing and discoloring. And you can't wax it to protect the finish. Also tire dressing can "stain" certain types of matte or flat finishes.
