The Black MarketMusou Black Fabric KIWAMI, Backcoated - A4 Sized Cut

For flocking a telescope or internal camera components, nothing I have found is blacker than this. It is far, far more light absorbing than the adhesive-backed flocking papers I have purchased from several telescope vendors. This stays black even when viewed at various angles, though if you are dumping an insane amount of direct light onto it and viewing it at an angle of around 45 degrees, you will get some shine - but I know of NO product on the market that would not do the same thing yet be worse. For any reviewers claiming it isn't that black, or that a blacker product exists, I would love to see proof with a link to another product that they feel is more light absorbent than this.

HOW IS THIS FABRIC SO BLACK?!Easily, and I mean easily, the blackest fabric you'll likely find. Its blacker than their paint too. It feels surprisingly durable.This is hard to describe but its so black it'll blow out images if youre not careful. I attached a photo of the blackest tape I had along with a swatch of the blackest fabric I had before called "VL".

I didn't have high hopes for this product, but it's just fantastic. It's expensive for its size, so I recommend it only if it's affordable for you. Be careful with the dust in the room and don't use it outdoors, because the surface is like velvet and any speck of dust can easily stay on it and it's annoying to remove it later. I leave this reference image, There is a light shining directly into my hand, my keyboard is the same black as the fabric, exactly the same black color, however you can see the difference between a plastic material that reflects the light and the fabric that doesn't reflect the light at all, it's like pure black. If you make a photography set with this black fabric, and add a polarizing light filter, you can have the perfect combo.I was surprised. 100% recommended.

The fabric is pretty dark but it was dirty as if some liquid was spilled on it, ruining it's effect on a few sections.

I don't believe this is truly Musou material. It has the same texture as velvet, and attracts lint and dust. It is decent for flat surfaces, but curving the material makes it reflective. If it were truly Musou, it should absorb light at any angle. In the picture, you can see the reflection where the fabric curves.

Because I'm not the brightest bulb, I didn't realize that A4 was the size of a sheet of paper, so it's kinda small for my needs.Otherwise Very nice, I keep it stored in the packaging, to keep lint/dust out of it.

Easy to work with and the ULTRA black is pretty much invisible.

It's hard to imagine a fabric being much more black. Pretty expensive but was great for my photography application.
