The blackest black paint ever


Thought I'd share, I bet there's a bunch of applications in HT screens here:

Also, it's very cool stuff. I have no financial interest in it, but figuring out a good use for it will keep me up for a while.

IF you look hard enough, eventually you will find (see ) Schrodinger’s cat

only the serious will understand this
It's like how much more black could that be? The answer is none. None more black.
Not to oversimplify it, but there is only "1" black colorant made for the entire paint/dye industry, and it's called lamp black.  And all black paints are made from a clear base, and that goes for any type of paint produced.  So, unless the clear base is milky to begin with, or there is some other colorant in the mix...BLACK IS BLACK.  If your base is truly clear, and you're using lamp black only, you can't get any blacker.  Now...not to confuse anyone, but ALL paints start as a clear, then white is added and color bases are created from that.  How do I know this...39 years in the industry it's amazing what you learn.
Man, people would rather knee jerk than read:

This is not your standard coatings industry black, because the black you thought was black in 2010 is not actually black enough. Please read and enjoy.

Further, others are trying to get even blacker
