Summary
PITSTOP: MATTE PAINT FINISH CARE INSTRUCTIONS - This pitstop provides instructions regarding matte paint finish on some 2022MY~ vehicles. Contrary to gloss paint, matte painted surfaces have a unique finish with low gloss due to diffused light reflection. This requires different care (hand wash with special cleaners), to maintain and preserve the matte appearance. Warranty does not cover the vehicle’s matte appearance. Issues with matte paint at PDI should be reviewed with DPSM’s prior to any repairs.
