Threepio has often been dull coated, because you don’t want the camera and crew reflections on his body in every shot with him. (Not to mention the problem of shooting a shiny droid in the middle of a desert on a sunny day.) They went out of their way to make Threepio look shiny in Episode III, but that required some CGI to remove the reflections.
