you STILL need to shoot a practice panel, and I would advise doing a white gloss color FIRST (test panel or whatever) THEN try the metallic,.....getting metallics even is HARD, you'll see, it'll take lots of extra prep, and working the surface down to 400, or even 600 so you don't see sanding scratches in the metallic.
welcome to sanding,..err, painting!
