Polishing

[PorkChopPaws]

I have learned to polish solid colors pretty well but I am having a problem on my current build.I doing the 2006 Magnum as a 2 tone slammer.On the roof and hood I sprayed several coats of Plasticote black metalflake and let dry a couple of days.Tonight I started to polish it with 2000 grit moving up to 4000 and so far I got nothing for shine.Can metalflake be polished or should it just be sprayed with clear coat instead?

Never polish metallics nor pearlescent finishes-- clear coat them and polish the clear instead
