I want to try some pearl paint finishes, but I'm having trouble finding much information on how to get the best effect with them. I tried some Testor's Boyd Purple Pearl over Krylon purple, and while it jazzed up the finish some, it was less than awesome. I realized that maybe the basecoat needs to be a different color than the pearl coat. I searched TRF and paint manufacturers' websites, plus a general Google search, on painting with pearls and couldn't find much. Any advice? Other than using up all my (expensive) paint trying to find a combination that looks cool?
