1931 Firewall Color

I have searched high and low here and over on the Packard Club site and for the life of me cannot find any reference to what color the firewall should be on my 1931 833 468 Coupe.

Even thou I had it nicely painted in SS Gloss Black I had to strip it all off due to some adhesion problems. Paint was peeling off in sheets. Since I have to go through the pains of stripping re-priming and painting I may as well get it in the right shade of black.

Should it be Flat, Semi Gloss or Gloss?

Thank you very much for your feedback.
