I've been using that paint for years. It's great for hiding flaws in crash-damage repairs. You're correct in finding that the finish is dependant on undercoat reflectivity. This goes for any paint job. For a darker look I shoot it over dark grey or black primer ( or for a brighter look shoot over white primer)

I then coat with enamel clear to keep from lifting during tape removal.
The degree of "metalflakey" grainy-ness depends on how many coats you apply. For a real "flakey" look shoot a minimum of dry coats at a distance and no clearcoat ( it will dull somewhat over time, 'tho)
