It really does depend on how coarse the flakes are like Wally sez.

I've seen metalflake go down so coarse it feels like sandpaper. Then it has to be sanded with like 400 wet/dry and clear over which has to be sanded... then it has to be compounded and polished.

If I were you, I'd definitely paint some test panels before committing to painting an entire vehicle.
