Third is semi-gloss. I think this is the one you've been looking for. Its shine is almost the same as a straight out of the box. It was once used by a modeler that he custom built. I believe it was MG DHell when it's not yet out and fooled a lot of people.

Fourth it pearl gloss. It's the same as gloss but with added pearl effect. You know, glittery stuff and whatnot.

See the pic for reference
Spoiler for Pics:
I see. Thanks for the lesson! I'll pick one of those up in the near future and try it out.

A good friend of mine's not that into gunpla anymore, so he's parking his airbrush at my place for me to give it a try. Bring it on, HGUC Rozen Zulu!
