What if they found out that the matte finish was cheaper to produce.
How much of a premium would you be willing to pay for gloss...
I have no doubt that the matte finish is cheaper to produce than the gloss. But...........technology has advanced quite a bit in say the last 20 years. Throw some powder coat on one or something - just make it shiny. The custom shop can make darn near any color you want, and they're all the same price as the gloss black finish that was the standard for so long. As for how much I'd pay extra for gloss??? Hmm.....not much if any and sure as heck not $250.
There's a market out there for someone willing to put forth the effort.
