Top is 0 gloss or 'suede'. Everything else approx. 60%. Southern Auto Color mixed some of the 'suede' in lacquer for me. They've got a store in Cornelia; and probably one closer to you.

X2. Flat on the top and 60% for the rest. Semi-gloss is really, really close to 60%. And flat is pretty close to suede, if you want to rattle can it.

The suede paint actually has a texture to it that you can't duplicate with a flat black out of a spray bomb. The spray bomb will give you the right color, but not the texture.

True, I tried it on my LeMans when I was 19. I remember the original dash top looked fuzzier than my rattle can could reproduce, but level of gloss (none) appeared the same.
