I need a third option of no preference or either one is fine. Most of my ukes are satin but i have one gloss and its not any harder to slide for me.
Maybe it's just me being prissy and weird but I wash my hands before playing my ukes esp if i have been eating something sticky or have sweat, grease, or lotion on my hands so the sticky neck thing hasn't been an issue for me. My palmar skin texture is also smooth, slide-y and dry. I also tend to play in air conditioned venues. I guess when i try busking outside on a hot day my answer might change! Could be acids in sweat interacting with gloss finish?
You've given me much to think about.
