Chair Makeover with DIY metallic Paint

I discovered this paint effect by accident. I was varnishing a project one day when I got a parcel delivered. It was some Mica Powder that I wanted to use in epoxy resin. I excitedly ripped the parcel open and the mica powder went flying all over my wet varnish. To try and save my finish I smoothed out the Mica powder with a brush and the effects were this stunning metallic paint effect. I have googled this and I can’t find where anyone else has done this. See the tutorial here.
