Speaking of black paint, it's amazing the number of brand new cars with orange peel. A 2005 black Ford XR6 pulled up next to me and my father, and I said "Check out that paint - new car and it's got orange peel all over it", which you could see from 10 feet away.

Next time you're waiting at lights, check out the finish on the car in front. Usually the area around the number plate has an orange peel finish, regardless of the make or age of the car. I presume it's something to do with 2 pak in a production line and the vertical surfaces of the car. So home made paint jobs can be better prepared than factory finishes.
