i have seen several pistols in ads having a "black matt" finish and my LLama Mini Max 45 has part of the slide in that finish. What exactly is that, and what are the product names if any. thanks

Matte black is just simply a dull looking black finish. It can be sandblasted or beadblasted and blued (black oxide) or a baked on laquer or polymer type finish.
