Shadow RSX Type-S

I picked up a can of this for $9.99 today, and I want to know what you all think of it before I put it on. I've tested it on my test RSX Body and out of the Green/Purple/Teal color shifting, all I can notice is the Green, and its in glittery flakes. Is colorshifting stuff basically glitter, or is it a whole new type of paint. I'm wanting somthing with glitter, but I'm wanting a solid colorshifting paint underneath the sparkles. I have some Gloss Black paint to go behind the SpazStix paint, as the associate who helped me recommended. The paint is made for the 1/10 Lexan bodies, but I wanted some color shifting stuff and I don't have the money for an airbrush. I've already spent a lot on my Xmod, but it was all under the body. Now I want to make it look as fast as it is. On a dyno, it has tested at over 40M.P.H! I have neons on it and stuff, but I want a Neon Green (like the color of the Eclipse that Brian O'Conner has is TFaTF), that shifts into a Sky Blue, into a Teal, into a Midnight Blue. Anyone know of a good paint that will do these exact colors? Also, if someone can tell me if colorshifting paint is just different color glitter, or is it actually a solid paint like a water-based paint or something. Thanks for everything everyone! I'll post pictures later after it's done.
