This is correct, I believe. Probably a typo in the text. To my knowledge, there is no "grat", rather it should be "grad" as in "degree" -- making the correct translation "level of glossiness" or, more aptly, degree of glossiness" (gloss level). See LEO for a discussion of this exact issue! -- Sean Hanover
