I also coated them with a sealant that has some slight gloss enhancing properties, but that's really subtle and I seriously doubt it would be noticeable on camera.
So it turns out the standard gunmetal finish Forgestar offers is in fact gloss gunmetal. Semi-gloss is a custom finish and is most frequently seen on the 19x10 SDC square sets that mod bargains stocks.

I ordered mine in the standard gloss gunmetal finish but am now leaning toward switching to semi-gloss gunmetal, which uses a satin clearcoat.

Anyone have any thoughts or preferences between the two?
