Works wonderful, but it looks like long term heavy use will wear away the black coating.

Comments about Matthews Century C+ Turtle Base Grip Arm Kit, Black - 10.5' (3.2m):
same great performance as the tried and true c-stands i have ....... BUT, the black is just paint and already scratching off, I was hoping for more of a "dyed metal" look that would stand up to the uses that a c-stand goes through

Comments about Matthews Century C+ Turtle Base Grip Arm Kit, Black - 10.5' (3.2m):
Straight out the package, someone at the factory had slid the top section in while the paint was half dry so it looks really blotchy (showed Matthews the pictures but they didn't offer to replace it...I would have). The paint scrapes off pretty quickly when you screw in the knobs and attach lights to it. The black paint is also thick enough that the 5/8" arm is no longer 5/8" so you can't attach a light to the end of the arm.
Matthews really needs to look at a black chroming process. Look at Avenger if it truly is made of black steel. As it is, you might as well get it in chrome and spray paint it flat black or gaffer tape it if you want to avoid lens flare...I'd recommended you get the chrome version instead.
Pros
- Attach Securely
- Durable
- Long-Lasting
