Not so much a matter of gloss as it is a matter of texture. I tend to polish out everything to get an absolutely smooth finish. Tamiya paints are pretty glossy, but I've never gotten them to look as smooth when it drys as it looks when it goes on. There is a small amount of orange peel that I take out with 6000, 8000 and 12000 grit sandpaper.
