There is add-on metallic flakes you can put in paint, and these flakes can be quite big which will give the "houseboat" effect or whatever. For the most part, OEM metallics have much smaller flakes so it doesn't look that extreme really.

im not talkin about metallic paints i mean FLAKE. the kind that you use a special gun with. i think mugenhonda has some experience with this. you lay the basecoat, then flake, then clear. the pearl can be mixed in with the clear and usually is... but idunno. alright, you win that one.
