Is the Metallic Silver/Gold Acrylic Based?
Yes! The Goldest Gold and the Silveriest Silver are both acrylics!.

It's actually a good question because the silveriest silver is real silver. Sadly the gold would have been way too expensive to use the real thing, so I use a blend of pigments to as closely as possible match the colour of the real gold.
It'll go on totally fine, it's pretty good. It's as hard-wearing as any acrylic so it will flake over time, you could use angelus as a top coat to protect it if you want.
Yeah, it should hold up pretty well, even outdoors, but, it will need a few coats to get it nice and strong. So let it dry between layers and it'll be alright. It'll be alright for a few years, but you'll have to redo it. Maybe a couple of years in,
