Someone is interested in having me make Koto instrument stands. After the cabinetry I've been doing lately, these look
pretty simple. Does the shiny black finish have a name so I can look up how it's done? tia - Nigel

I achieve this using automotive materials and techniques--multiple
coats of sprayed lacquer, wet sanded between coats, followed by
multiple coats of clear lacquer also wet sanded. After final coat, wet
sand with finer grades of wet paper, followed by automotive rubbing and
polishing compounds.
