Can I use this paint over existing acrylic layers?

Compatibility varies; ensure the surface is clean and dry and try a small test area first to avoid lifting or reaction between layers.

What is the best way to blend this metallic into weathering?

Apply the metallic base, then use washes and dry brushing sparingly to add tonal variation without obscuring the metal effect.

Is it OK to mix this with other metallic shades?

Mixing can create custom tones but test small amounts first to confirm visual results and maintain consistent finish properties.

Any tips for avoiding brush streaks with metallics?

Use soft brushes, thin coats and smooth strokes, or switch to an airbrush for larger areas to minimise visible brush marks.
