    May be a dumb question, but, is a matte finish the same as a satin finish? I've always considered matte to be the same as a flat finish, but have heard matte and satin referred to as the same.:dunno:

    Matte is to painted surfaces as Satin is to polished surfaces.

    for instance, this razor has a satin finish:

    this camaro has a Matte Black coat of paint:
