Polyester power coating, powder sprayed on then baked with heat, not sure but a satin finish should be available ?
Search for "Colorcote" it appears to be a franschise operation

Re: Paint codes

The 460 bumpers and grille, while looking black, are actually Dark Grey and the paint code is MB 7167.

I hope that this helps.

John
