Matte Keystone RV Owner? Opti-Coat Says You Can Finally Protect It Without Adding Gloss

Matte finishes look tough on the road. They stand out at the campground, in the infield, or wherever you park your rig. They are also a pain to protect, since a lot of traditional products can accidentally add shine or streaks. That is where Opti-Coat comes in for Keystone RV owners.

Optimum Polymer Technologies, the company behind Opti-Coat® Ceramic Coatings, has confirmed that its Opti-Coat Ceramic line works with NORTHSTAR matte paint systems used on Keystone RVs. In simple terms, Keystone’s matte finish can now be ceramic coated for long-term protection while still looking like a true matte finish.

Normally, matte paint and typical waxes or sealants do not mix well. Many products can change the appearance by adding gloss or leaving uneven marks. Testing from NORTHSTAR and Optimum Polymer Technologies shows that Opti-Coat Ceramic forms a transparent layer of silicon carbide, or SiC, that protects the surface while keeping the matte texture and non-reflective look in place.

“Matte finishes have always required special care to maintain their look,” said David Ghodoussi, Owner and Creator at Optimum Polymer Technologies. “With NORTHSTAR’s innovative paints and our technology, Opti-Coat provides the protection RV owners expect—without the gloss they don’t want. It’s the ideal solution for preserving the beauty and durability of Keystone’s matte surfaces.”

NORTHSTAR, a division of Lusid Technologies, designs its paint systems for high performance and a distinctive visual style in automotive, RV, and specialty markets. The collaboration with Optimum Polymer Technologies is focused on real-world applications. That includes resistance to UV damage, protection from oxidation, and easier cleanup when the rig sees a lot of highway miles and rough weather.

“Opti-Coat enhances our matte systems by adding real-world protection while keeping the original finish exactly as designed,” said Labree Truesdale, President and CEO of Lusid Technologies. “Our collaboration with Opti-Coat underscores how surface chemistry and coating technology can work hand-in-hand. The results show that Opti-Coat maintains the integrity of our matte systems while extending their longevity and ease of care for end users. Keystone RV owners now have a finish that’s both beautiful and practical.”

For RV owners who spend weekends at the track or out in the elements, the combination of NORTHSTAR matte paint and Opti-Coat Ceramic is designed to keep Keystone RVs looking cleaner for longer. Bug splatter, road grime, and other fallout are easier to wash off, and the factory matte look stays intact instead of turning shiny.
