I’m trying to replicate the paint on my son-in-law’s 1985 Mazda RX7, a nice little car but it’s been out in the weather most of its life. It looks nice with the factory-new shine but not realistic: he got the car in 2005, and by then the shine was already long gone. Is there a way I can tone down the shine? I tried a gradient to apply fading and shadows, but it still looks super shiny when the paint’s all done.
when you go to the paint cars menu, hit the right bumper to scroll through paint style until you get to “Special Paint”. From this list, you can choose matte or semi-gloss finishes. I think they start out red, but pressing “X” will let you change the color of the finish
