Or just get the flat (matte) black model enamel, and don't worry about it.

No doubt flocking works better, but we're looking for cheap and easy fixes here.
If the inside of a lens hood seems too reflective, a coat or two of flat black
paint would seem worth a try. BTW, I have seven EF lens hoods; the EW-83 II,
EW-63 II, EW-60 II, ET-65 III, and ET-118 II are flocked, and the EW-83B and
ET-83B (for the 200/2.8L) are flockless. Are there now flocked versions of the
two 83Bs? Of the two, the ET-83B (for the 28-70/2L) is smoother and more
reflective.
