Question Does Dust FEEL as Smooth as Gloss Ano?

Dust seems to look kind of bumpy/gritty/sandy. Is it actually smooth like Ano? -To touch?

Depends on how the finish was made. I use glass media in my bead blaster, and it creates a very smooth surface, yet "dust" finish.

This is dust right: http://store1.yimg.com/I/yhst-519212...0_1858_2207955
Thats basically how I'd like it. So it basically depends on how the place ano place does dust? I would basically want it dust, but as smooth as possible.

Would I be able to have dust put on with a clear gloss coat? Or woudl that just turn out gloss?

gloss turns out the shiney look at looks like glass or varnish or everyhting else that has a mirror finish....dust is a flat non reflective look...that xsv ego is dust

this is considered gloss:

I know the differences. Just i have never actually seen something in dust in real life.
Is it possible to have gloss but with a gritty/sandy look to it?
