What I have is simply labeled as G10, and then it has the dimensions. No other markings, no other information. I understand that it isn't the ideal material for scales, and I wouldn't have bought it had I known that it was the textured type. I know my matte black from gloss black when I see it, but sometimes the cans don't have labels....
At any rate, I added a few coats of CA and sanded down to a very nice glossy finish. I followed the tutorial linked elsewhere in the thread, and totally recommend it to anyone else running into similar problems with whatever scale material you happen to have.
The matte or satin finish looks really nice though. And G 10 is as was said BULLET proof, lol. I was just frustrated trying to get them to high gloss when that isnt possible without adding some poly or ca finish. I dont regret buying this, it would have been easier if someone told me g10 isnt doable high polish and that MICARTA is. Live and learn. Paper black micarta coming for shinier finish, I also got red g 10 same as the blue and black. As I said I really like the look in satin.
