I'd advise to by all types for choosing smth for certain work. Plain black are just black flakes, but those holographic are totally different in appearance, for certain work one might be more suitable, than another.
This picture maybe would say a bit more about how they look, but it's not what they are in reality under the sun.

Cool, Simon!
Never thought it could happen. 0.8 through 1.0! It's good to know. Now I can be sure that 1.3 will work well for many sizes, at least from 0.1 to 0.6 and, as your experience shows, even 0.8
Cool observation!
That's why I thought to use slow thinner for the reason binder wouldn't dry too fast and we'd have more window to work with wet layer.
That's what I thought about. In the video below another option is shown for better control.
These words "more intercoats" I do not like
That means thick paint layer, it's no good.
Sweet spot should be found, as not only the effect we need, but also right paint layer thickness.
Smart idea came to search on youtube
At one shot found
the same u-pol gun I mentioned above used as flake buster. Nothing was done with the gun. It works without any improvements! (But I will not be me, if I wouldn't do anything with the tool
). The guy shows that it works.
Keep your shoes protected! It shows that regulators must be installed.
Below there are two busters, that provide smarter control. Valve is added to the flake flow either. I like the idea much! That's what must be installed in the buster.
I think these are basic designs that should be considered.
One thing bothers me, there's no tube going to the bottom! I think, built with the tube would work better... who knows. As I understand both things are siphon type, but how siphon would normally work without the tube?
This one has an interesting nozzle.
