Default Under hood clear type? prof painters

I'm going to have the motor out shortly and plan on repainting the complete engine bay and even on my gm books I cannot find specs on the clear. It has been too long since I saw these cars new and just can't remember.

From the factory is the underhood paint full gloss/matte/ or standard clear with a flattening agent mixed in.? My car is black.

Thats EVERY car for you, not just GM. But if your painting it anyways you might as well clear it
