Guys, i'm going to paint the interior and the back of my new TT Armor+ case black and i need some paint that is more shiny and glossy to better match the factory paint job. I got a can of Duplicolor High Performance Wheel Coating in black as MKmods recomended and tested it out but its a very dull black color. Can someone recomend something more shiny?

can you recomend something specific that would be good for a case?

Edit: Found High Performance Wheel Clear Coat on Duplicolor's site, will that do the trick?
