here are some samples of Dupont Black lacquer with the referenced amount of flattener...
I then placed a piece of tape over one side and then polished the other side by hand with some fine cut cleaner and a rag, the results speak for themselves.
80% gloss ~ 20% flattener
70% gloss ~ 30% flattener
Another - the top sample is 10% flattener -
As you can see - polishing does away with the majority of the matte look whether the ratio is 70 or 80%.
