People like to say “you can’t panel line black” but of course you most certainly can, and it looks great. You just need a deeper black than your base color, which is usually not hard to do. Plus if you have clear paint in your black, it gives it depth, which means it’s that much more visible against a black base. This works on all but the very deepest and glossiest black bases.
