I saw an AR barrel at a gun show that looked like polished stainless, but the guy told me it was Cerakote over a polished standard steel barrel. I got his phone number, but when I called later it was no longer in service. Is it possible to get a Cerakote finish like that, or was he mistaken?

It was just a clearcoat. Yes Cerakote makes clear coats in varying degrees of gloss.

From high gloss to not so much of a gloss.

Not according to the guy at the show who claimed it was silver Cerakote.

Why would they go to the trouble to polish a barrel to just Cerakote over it?

To my knowledge Cerakote doesn't offer anything that "blingy".
