    I sprayed my dash with silver flake over a silver basecoat then cleared over it all spray cans. looked great, my only advice is dont use a cheap topcoat like i did as it yellowed after a few months of driving.

    Well I experimented some today. I did one arm rest with laying bigger flake on it and for interior trim it's more than I want.

    I went to the local craft place and got some clear sparkle. I wasn't too sure about what I picked out as the best I can desribe it, it hit me as the word "parti" if that makes sense.

    I did one arm rest (trial) and I dunno. The different colors do make it deeper than just silver. The can takes some getting used to so if I go with it, I'll likely re-do this one.

    Any opinions?

    I kinda like that look, it could grow on you.
    Reminds me of the spray paint from the 1960's , all I remember is it had "Sparkle" on the name and my Mom used it on all kinds of holiday stuff, I would try it on Bikes and sadly for me the patio table!
