Yeah, that was about as clear as mud wasn't it... what I meant to say is that, IMO, the sheen that AAA has comes from the aluminum and not from the base, unless perhaps both have close to the same sheen. The paint that has dried on my bottle looks very much like the dull side of a sheet of aluminum foil, not the shiny side, and the surface of the bottle itself is glossy.

I'd have to say IMO that I agree with him. I see the aluminum plain as day, but I'm not sure that the acrylic polymer is doing anything more than transfer medium and binder. But again, it's just an opinion.
