Hello, and welcome. Let's see ...

The paint you used is metallic, so you will need to add a coat of clear laquer (read: 5-7 light coats should do it). Follow the steps in the FAQ for metallic paints.

What paint did you use (brand)? This will govern the type of clear coat that you may use for the model.

Laquer refers to the clear coat (most of the time), so you can buy it at a hobby shop near you. But which one to get depends really on your answer to the question in the previous paragraph.

And one more thing, Chuck, - metallic colours will not be as reflective as solid colours. Just letting you know.

HTH
