You can do either, depending on the distance the spray gun is held from the surface. With this particular color, my cousin painted his Acura TL from about 14 - 16" which resulted in a rougher, more matte-finished appearance. He then stripped that off and repainted from about 6" which resulted in a very smooth, almost satin look.

My wheels were painted at about 6" and have a smooth, uniform appearance. I'm absolutely pleased with the result, doesn't look cheap or "rattle-can" like.
