Beelzebub pattern

So i've been enjoying your Beezlebub scanlations recently and was wondering how you got such a smooth pattern on grey gradients? Like the sky here:

Thanks for the advice guys, i went and got topaz clean & denoise. Unfortunately my results give me a rather ugly looking "grain" on the pattern. I was hoping a cleaner here could share his/her Action so i can see what kind of settings i should be using? Or if that's impossible just some advice on what specific setting makes the pattern look smooth like my example in my original post.

While those tutorials are helpful, there doesn't seem to be one for creating a constant grey grain. There is one for removing all grain from a grey background but my results still failed to get close to my original post while also sacrificing detail in other areas. Specifically I want to be able to take the original grey background and make it smooth and uniform while maintaining the same general pattern.

With Topaz Clean:

Even with the settings as strong as i could conceivably go, the detail i got has varying blurry and sharp areas and "holes" of patterns.

I will ask Remi if she ever comes by.
