Vantablack

Vantablack paint has been around since 2014, but it wasn't applied to a vehicle until this year. This is as dark as they come and it plays tricks on the mind as it erases all contour from an image. It quite literally creates a black hole out of an image that defies everything we have ever known.

BMW has it available on some of their cars.

Your brain interprets objects covered with it as being 2D. It can't figure out it's 3D because there is no reflection or change in color from varying depth levels.

There's a competitor now retail selling a product called Black 3.0.

Example (it's a ball)




See how your mind can't interpret depth?
