Spraying Candy shortcut...

ill just be quick and to the point.
When i spray candy i like to Mix my House of kolor *candy of choice* into the clear coat.. It saves me from spraying say 5+ coats to reach a happy medium and then ill top it off with solid clear...
I guess my reason for posting is to get feedback.. ive heard some people say u cant do that for misc. reasons mostly that it isnt as nice or durable.
Ive sprayed only motorcycles that way and am a bit curious how it would effect a large panel like say my 69 Chevelle im about to spray with it. Will it be Uniform? I plan on using gold base followed by a tack coat of solid clear then 2-3 layers of CandyBurgandy-clear then 3+ solid clear.
Any with Experience in this Issue?
Thanks for any Info u all might have.
