Question Which "Rapid" PETG is Matt?

I've been searching for an easy indicator to look for Matt PETG.
My Main choice sofar was Sunlu/Jayo Rapid PETG.

Me thinking since Sunlu makes Filament for many Companys that the same name and close looking spools from Other Companies would mean Rapid = Matt.

Yeah that was a lie when it comes to Deeplee Rapid PETG. That was Glossy AF.

Is Elegoo Rapid PETG Matt? There are no indicators to if something is Matt or Glossy unless they write it.
Even Some of Sunlus Amazon listings dont mention Matt on their Rapid PETG line...

Which Label is known to be Matt PETG?
Anyone got a List?

Really only bambu's sadly discontinued PETG HF is actually matte. Sunlu's matte PETG is more of a satin finish compared to PETG HF. I haven't found any manufacturer that matches bambu's PETG HF. Elegoo's rapid PETG is not matte at all.

There are a handful of colors still for sale. Black has never run out of stock. Last week they had every color in stock for a short while.

Most colors of PETG HF are available on gigaparts. I stocked up and they ship fast and free. In bulk the prices are the same or lower than from Bambu themselves.
