98.98% non reflective. You can do a mask or a 3d object, project to a background and see nada. Go to a side view voila.

I’m thinking about using some black 3.0 on a project. Have you had a chance to use any of these yet?

It seems like applications are limited because the coatings are very brittle, due to the fact that those are pure aligned CNTs, without any binder or resin. Thus it cannot be painted, the deposition process is very slow and expensive. Very cool nonetheless.
