I put the can in hot water and then shake it really well like always, but this is what I got.
I used Tamiya TS-21 Gold.

Another angle.
Looks like the area was sprayed too wet/heavy at one time and the metallic particles separated. Let it dry, and then carefully mist on a couple more coats for it to even out. Your clearcoat is what needs to be ultra-smooth, the gold (being a base coat) can have some slight texture to it, to even out the metallic particles.
