When did they stop making the Krylon Semi Gloss Black? Do they still make the semi-flat?

I've heard the industrial formula is still 1613 lacquer, but haven't tried it out yet.

----They still make Semi-Gloss and semi-flat, but unless its in the identical old style can the formula has been changed and I dont like it near as well. I still find the old cans out there but they are dwindling down. I cant get them locally at all......Bill S

Or for a quick easy semi fix you could spray some SEM brand Trim Black. It won't be correct but will look much better than what you are describing. It also goes on really easily and is hard to screw up. Comes in spray cans and dries in probably 2 minutes.

Not familiar with Delfleet but if it's a polyurethane and within the same line of paint, you're good to go. This is a great method to achieve you're desired gloss. Remember to shoot a test panel, then let it cure for at least an hour to gauge the true gloss.
Using flattening agent is always a chore and results are tough to duplicate. SEM gives you 1 result, no variants, having 2 parts to custom mix gives you full control.
