how to matte paint?

I once saw a longhood kinda outlaw with a blue matte paint finish.
since then I'm flashed. It'd be one of the few options I'd like my car to look like (except bahama yellow or dolphin grey).

well, as my car is blue (got a US-paintjob sometime in early 2000) which is not original and not too well done, and as I don't plan to strip it in near time, I thaugt that the actual paint can be matted. and I don't want to save that paint til I die.

so, for the meantime, is this a good idea? if yes, how to?
grind it gently with 3000-pads?

(no plastidip suggestion please, I read lots about it, but it'll add 5-6kg more to the weight)

Thanks for suggestions.
