Thanks, Mark
The Satin does not work well with the HTM. When we finish a wheel in this fashion, we powdercoat the center black, put the part back in the lathe and use a diamond tipped tool to recut the face. This diamond tool leaves a bright, almost polished finish. We then wash the part and powdercoat a clear over the entire piece. The final part is completely protected with a clear powdercoat. We can do the same process with a satin clear, but the HTM accent will not be clear and bright. It will look dull and cloudy. We could powdercoat the part satin black, then cut the face and not clear it, but this would create maintenace issues and the appearance would be short lived.

Thanks, Mark
