I am looking for a good paint to do my targa top. I DO NOT like or want a high-gloss finish, as to me that looks cheesy and what flippers routinely use. I want something between a satin and a medium gloss finish. Anybody out there have any suggestions? Thanks.

My top had been sanded smooth and painted by the PO. I wanted to get a satin black and textured look. My wife suggested that I try a can of Rustoleum Hammered Black paint. I was doubtful, but gave it a shot, and I really like the way it turned out. I'll have to get a pic of it on the car later, but here it is the day after painting it. It's actually not as glossy in up close as it looks in the picture.
