Kind of dumb question (maybe)

Posted in Custom Workstation

If you spray a gloss paint with a flat matte, does it totally diminish the gloss?

There are "satin" finishes you can get too, those have kind of a semi-gloss look--shiny, but not too shiny. If you really want to maintain a gloss look, I'd use gloss sealer (heck, if you're going to use the gloss sealer anyway, you don't even have to bother using the gloss paint to begin with).

Thanks. I want to keep the shiney leather look, so maybe I'll test it out.

Not completely. Matte is not flat, if you wish for no shine, you need a flat finish paint. Matte is more like the step in between gloss and flat.
