    You can just add a matting agent to normal black topcoat. It will cost the same, or probably slightly less (the matting agent will be cheaper than the topcoat) than normal.

    Really? Cool. I saw a photo of a mk4 golf with it and it looks the dog's testicles!!! Do you have an approx figure for the cost? Also, would you have to clean/polish it differently?

    Cost will vary depending on how much you do yourself, etc, but expect to pay £700+ for a full respray (can be a lot more if the bodyshop does everything).
    I would guess that you would clean as normal.

    It is fairly popular in some Custom circles:
