Referred to as “the Blackest Black paint in the universe”, Culture Hustle has created Black 4.0. A black paint capable of absorbing almost 100% of light, generating an incredible optical illusion.
Why did we choose this?
Vantablack, known as the “darkest substance ever developed,” is difficult and expensive to produce, and has been approaching total darkness for years.
Created bySurrey NanoSystems, the substance is not accessible to the general public, because to access it, you must fill out an application in which you must explain in detail its use only for business and even military use, noting that applications to paint rooms, cars, clothing or other ordinary items, will not be accepted.
More about this product
However, there are companies and laboratories that have created paints for commercial use, with a light absorption close to and even higher than 99%.
Culture Hustle is one of them and has been developing its paint for 7 years, and its latest release Black 4.0 never ceases to amaze us with its 99.95% light absorption.
The difference between traditional black paint and Black 4.0 is impressive, as the latter generates an illusion of “emptiness”, creating a two-dimensional image, where you are not able to see reflections, shadows, wrinkles, reliefs or other common features in the objects covered by the paint.
Perfectly functional on surfaces such as wood, paper, canvas, plastics or metal, it can be applied with ordinary brushes and you can even dilute it in water to use it as a spray, and promises to offer completely superior results to its previous versions.
Its smallest and cheapest version is 150 ml for €56.95, then you can find the one liter version for €242.95 and finally, you can buy 6 liters (in the format of six 1 liter bottles) for €1,217.95.
Should you buy it?
Whether you are curious or to give it a real use, we believe that a unique product, with which you can turn any object into a 'black hole', just keep in mind the amount you need to do this.
On Youtube you can find different users who have used the paint on garments such as sneakers, on cars, walls or action figures, so you can see their final result and they will even be able to help you with some ideas.
