Every great metal finish starts with a black base, and this is the one built for the job. Xtreme Metal Black Base is a smooth gloss-black lacquer that lays the perfect foundation for the rest of the Xtreme Metal range — the darker and slicker your undercoat, the brighter and more mirror-like your metallics sit on top. Ultra-fine, hard-wearing and airbrush-ready, it's the first coat that makes chrome and aluminium really pop.
