ok i'm on a quest to find the most highly reflective, metallic effect gold paint ever - i see plenty of household examples - water taps, light switches, door handles, kids toys etc - its like a gold mirror.

i've tried dozens of aresols that "bluff you" with the gleaming metallic gold lid but when you spray its always dull & looks nowhere near.

i know you can get an effect by using a chrome base & tinting with a yellow but is there something out there "hiding" that more or less comes straight out of a can?

Have you tried Liquid Chrome?

you can get a gold mirror effect by spraying "chrome" on a black gloss base & then tinting with a candy yellow however i've examined many gold mirror plated items (even cheap toys) & they that are not painted that way.
