What color black for the rear Berger panel?

I'm buying an extra rear CAMARO panel to paint black like the Berger one, I had seen here before that there was a name for the Black paint used for it but I just did a search and couldn't find it. I know it is a flat black but I thought there was a specific name for it?

Thanks

I would assume it is a 'Satin' black. Flat black would look terrible after awhile, satin black would clean up nicely (when your washing your car). I would just look for the blackest satin black I could find. Unless you have a real Berger, that needs a replacement, I wouldn't worry about color match.

I'm sure you could call a Chevy dealer to get their paint code for black F-bodies, then take the code to paint store and get a can of it.

I heard here before that the paint that Berger used was the exact same thing you could get in a regular spray can, there was a name for it. Don't think it was satin or flat black, does anybody know?

Got the car today and it looks great. The black they used was just black, but they use a satin clear I believe.
