hi, i'm looking at buying some cellulose paint this week, it's an opaque colour on the deal i'm getting, but how can i make this metallic?
do i just mix with very fine metal flake? i dont want the big flakes like the 1.2 corsa crew do, just so it looks metallic.
if so, how much do i need for 5lt of paint?

thanks!, Rob

You dont so much as make paint metallic, you buy it when its already metallic.

So if you want metallic paint, your going to have to buy metallica paint.

if you want metal flakes you need to put it in the laquer, if you put it in the paint then the paint will cover the flakes.

Put it into a clear laquer and it'll look sweeeeet
