curious as to what techniques you prefer for flattening semi-gloss paint to flat? |

If your semi-gloss is an acrylic, you could mix Tamiya X21 Flat Base into it. X21 Flat Base is a white "goo" that turns gloss (and naturally semi-gloss) acrylics flat.

could I just mix mr. color flat superclear with the paint? |

I've never tried mixing a flat clear with paint to see how it would look, but I doubt that it would work. If you have flat clear, spray it over the semi-gloss coat to flatten it.

I also read people mix a flat coat with future to dull the paint out. |

Kind of. I mix Tamiya X21 Flat Base with Future at a ratio of 1 part Flat Base to 4 parts Future which yields a nice flat clear coat.
