Richard,

I painted mine gloss black which appeared to be the original color choice 
after I carefully cleaned 25 years of dirt and other schmutz off the old 
buckets.  Since these parts were supplied by independent venders during 
assembly, it's likely that a vender may have used more of a semi-gloss 
black......I like the look of gloss.
