Mine looks like flat black, you shouldn't have to sand down.

Flat. Might want to give it just a little tooth to bite into.

I had mine done in semi-gloss, but that might as well be flat

I would leave it red to see what it looks like. I like the way it looks on a white car with it left white. If you decide to paint it, id lightly sand it with a 400 grit paper, just to scuff the surface and allow the paint to adhere better.
