331 forum posts 156 photos | Good morning each. I might have made another mistake. I bought some paint from Paragon and requested a semi-gloss version of the J & S surface grinder blue. The choice for semi-gloss seemed like a good idea at the time. Unfortunately I painted the first part today and as its drying its already starting to look far too matt for my liking. Silly question really but no harm in asking... but is it possible to 'gloss it up' with T-cut or metal polish once its dry, or should I just fork out for another tin of gloss and use this one as an undercoat ?
