The more coats you apply the shinier it gets. It is not a "high" gloss but is shiny. I used this on my bathroom cabinets and only applied 2 coats however I applied 3 coats to my kitchen cabinets and there is a little more gloss to those. I wanted to protect them from the more wear and tear they will receive.

The finish is satin and pretty dark on mine. Less red and more brown than the pictures.

It is a cleaner, protector, and I would say semi gloss look. I love this stuff by the way. I can't find it in stores, I also clean my Dawg's with it.awesome cleaner.

I would call it satin finish, as there is a glimmer to it, and matte should not have a sheen or glimmer.

They are very similar, but I think the satin is a little more reflective(with tiny shiny specks). Personally, I prefer the semi-matte.

My wife works with polymer clay. Gloss gives depth and extra dimension to the projects. It also enhances metallic clays, such as gold and silver. She would never use satin or semi-gloss over metallics, because all they do is to dull the shine. Satin and semi-gloss are great for projects where a rough, unpolished, or "natural" look is desired, such as Steampunk projects. Hope this helps and best of luck with your creations!

I would say it's more satin than glossy and it's cherry wood but, not too red. It definitely has a brown color.

Think the problem is with terminology. A satin finish is not the same as matte. I think of matte as almost totally non-reflective, and more like anodized aluminum would be. Satin finish is shiny / reflective, but not as much as glossy. This flashlight definitely is a shiny/reflective black (whole. Head, body, & tail all the same). It's not as shiny as smooth plastic would be though. So I'd say it's neither glossy or matte, but more of a satin finish, leaning slightly towards glossy.

I would describe the one I received as "shiny" so I'll say "gloss". FYI, I found a less expensive local source subsequently...

I have the brushed finish and it is like a satin finish. I presume the other is more polished.

Mine came in black which I believe is std. It is a satin finish [ slight sheen ] and mine was of good overall quality.

Yes it is satin, its very nice and well worth the price, it is sturdy and has a heavy base to make it very stable. I imagine in chrome it will have a cheaper look, as chrome shows more defects in the metal finish

When I ordered it I was confused too. The semi gloss Iis textured and is awesome! I'm very glad I bought it and it is easy to put on( bults on) . U will need some help simply because it is heavy. 100x better then stock plastic. It was a good price and I like it more then the expensive ones out there. Hope this helps. Ps get the back bumper and backup lights! The back finders flow into bumper. Jeeps should come like this setup

I'm sorry, but I don't know... I got the gloss yellow and blue, but I think that matte finish may be a little better. No evidence to back that up since I haven't seen or had the opportunity to have any contact with the matte bumpers, but that is my thoughts on that. Sorry I can't be of more help. :-/

well I am NOT an expert on Satin smooth products but there should be a label on the side of the can that says if it's a hard wax used without a strip or a soft wax used with the strip

I would use satin on oak. I use gloss on my dining table surface because I wipe it off so often and it lasts longer.

Thank you for the inquiry. We stopped selling the "satin" finish version due to poor response. The chrome version looks great down below once you install it. The chrome compliments the bright (brilliant) chrome accents of the upper grille frame and headlight ballasts. Accesspeed also offers a Lifetime Warranty on it, as well. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you.
