How does SEMS look really really close up? Same as "Black leather" would look? OR like a 7 or 8 out of 10..? Be honest

That looks beautiful! If you don't mind post up the step-by-step process for the painting (I'm a newb at it). This is now on my "to do" list.

if you apply it correctly it looks exactly like factory Black Leather. small short bursts, thin coats. 10/10. If you try and spray heavy coats in long bursts it sets fake looking.
