    I don't know how it's done anymore but at one time I know it went like this...

    Gloss paint - 100% gloss
    Semi Gloss - 60% Gloss
    Semi Flat - 20% Gloss (?)
    Flat - 0% Gloss

    So I'm sure that satin and Matt probably fit in there somewhere.....

    The call for Krylon garnered much praise.
