I think it's kind of traditional to use plain enamel for the contrast bits, even when the main paint is metallic/pearl/whatever.

FWIW I picked white enamel for my seat tube panel. The contrast between the plain shiny white paint and the sparkly main paint is nice.

BTW if you're playing with the framebuilder app, the pictures it renders are only approximately what the real colors will look like.
