What's the difference between the colors "Gloss Black" &amp; "Glossy Black"? Also, is there a flat black available?

They are the same, just where they are shipped from is different. One is shipped from us directly and the other is shipped from Amazon- both are our products, just different shipping options. Flat Black is listed in the drop-down menu: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HWDOBIK

they are pretty similar but i believe the matte (regular black) has a slightly glossier finish... almost too slight to tell...

There are two dark blacks same color but one is shimmer and one is matte if that answers your question. Please let me know. :)

Hey Vanessa, it has a glossy finish. Honestly, I find that it shows more smudges and reflections. I have the HD, but would get the standard one if I were to do it again. Other than this, the product performs really well though.

I agree with other two responders. It's a plain gloss black. Ordinary luster.

I would describe it as a horizontal brushed metallic black just like it looks in the photo. It is not glossy in the sense of polished, but has a metallic shine to it when hit by light at the right angle. It is closer to matte than glossy overall.

The shimmer ones are pretty shimmery, the high gloss are only glossy for a little while. Think "99 cent" store. It's not terrible, but you'll have a crap load of colors you don't need. Just buy your favorite colors in quality form. That's my humble advice.

No not high gloss and not black. It's an dark brown or mahogany as some say.

It is a gloss finish. I have an older model that is flat black. When my Polk Audio sub gave out, I was happy with the Yamaha so I ordered the same model. I was a little surprised that it was a gloss finish. It doesn't look bad though - finish is subtle

It is not semi-gloss at all. It's flat black paint and it flakes off quite a bit

Gloss Clear vs Matte Black. Are both material identical in stiffness and thus protection? Or is one softer? And is one grippier than the other? Does clear look OK with the black phone (subjective)? Thanks in advance for any help.

It is a combo of glossy and flat black. The pic only distorts it to " looking " grey. I like.

It's purely preference. If it's for military or tactical purposes, get black coated. If is strictly for outdoor use and recreation, get satin. Satin finish is truly stunning to behold!

It is a shiny black. I would have preferred matte as well, but in the end I was happy enough with the shiny, since the quality was much better than other decals I had looked at/purchased in the past.

Go to 3M site and read their tech bulletin on 1080. They specifically tell you which to use. Of course, theirs, but they also recommend a meguiars product too.ONLY on the gloss 1080--not satin or matte!!If you have satin or matte, I'd use Aerospace 303.

Flat black has a dull finish. But this flat black dries more like gray, so if you're car is a dark black I would avoid this product.
