How metallic is brilliant silver?

It's definitely metallic. Just remember that there is a lot of diversity in the rage of metallic paints and that can have a considerable influence on the actual appearance. Brilliant Silver is a metallic, no question.

It's a metallic for sure... looks like polished aluminum in low light, has flakes in it in bright light.
