Black 3.0 is a super special acrylic paint. We have spent nearly 2 years tweaking its formulation to create a black that absorbs 98-99% of visible light! Quite simply we've created the blackest black acrylic paint.

It's just a matte black. Any picture or video that shows otherwise is using deceptive camera tricks to do so. The in person appearance just looks like a dull black.

Extremely disappointed. Not that black, looks matte gray in direct light, does not dry well, i can swipe my finger on surface 2 days after drying and it will smear and come off. Terrible product and not at all worth the price, you're better off with golden, utrecht, etc... any other professional brand I've bought and used in the past is better and if you want to make it matte you can use varnish. Do not waste your money.

This is a yes, but! It's certainly not easy to obtain a nice even black surface. I used this for the first time in a painting on a canvas of 100cm to 70cm. The surface I wanted to cover was about a third of the canvas. I followed each and every advice I found on Semple's website. I painted carefully, but the paint dried so quickly that it was unavoidable to recover some parts of the freshly painted areas. It amounted in ugly patches. The following day I recovered it very quickly with a large brush. This time it worked out well, but there were a few areas that I missed in my hurry not to make the same mistake of the first day. So the following day I just covered those patches. After drying up these were darker than the rest. So today I covered the full surface again with quick strokes. It looks almost perfect now, a very smooth velvetlike black. Almost perfect, however. I guess if a medium was added to slow down the drying it would be easier to use.
@sarah_ross1@benjamineevans yeah it will stick - it'll need a couple of thin coats but sadly it's not super durable so with use it would start to look a bit shabby. A protective topcoat would work but sadly it's going to destroy the ultra matte velvet effect! A bit annoying because a super black Mac book would be really cool!
