whats the difference between the gloss and pearl? I purchased gloss for my black dip.

I think I'm going to be doing that bronze gold on my 87's just to change it up a bit.

the glossifier is just that gloss, the more coats you put the glossier it will be, the pearl has somewhat of a gloss to it but also has that pearl hue, so black dip with gloss will look really black with pearl no so much.
