Now that would be worth a try. I would at least do a sample piece. Keep us informed on this.

The illusion powders make a nice metal flake.They come in different colors and are very nice. I add 1 teaspoon of illusion the a cup of clear, gives just a hint of flake without changing the base color. 50/50 mix is very heavy metallic look. Try it.
