Toying with the idear of doing my interior in a metalic black with 6-8 coats of clear for a super shine :Thumbs-up  just wanting to know can you buy gold flakes to put into the paint?

[Jono FD3]

Yes... you can buy different colour & different sized flecs!!! It\'s called fire flake if I remember correctly, or metal flake??

Better going pure black, met black tends to look dusty black or grey at 1st glance.
