Jerry, Eastwood and Summit has a flat black (Hot Rod black). But some off the guys on the HAMB use flat black from there local John Deere dealer, it is called Blitz black and they say it does a good job.

Any paint supply shop should be able to mix up what you want by adding a flattening addative.

and its pretty reasonable price wise. Rustoleum also sells some be sure to thin it down or it will take forever to dry. and that's available just about anywhere.

I have been using SEM Hot Rod Black on some stuff and for a hood blackout it look awesome and is easy to use.

I do mix my own single stage urethane and have different ratios of flatners for them as well to get differnt glosses for special parts.
