Anti-Glitter Campaign

Why is it that silver paints look nice and smooth but gold paint looks like gold glitter in a suspension?

It's not like I haven't tried various brands and types of metallic gold paint. I just consistently find that silver, brass, copper paints have a smooth paint-like appearance while gold paints look like.. glitter glue. This is actually one of the better golds. Most look like:

Yes, they are both Vallejo paints but I also have GreenStuff and Citadel Colour that are also glitter glue while their other metallic paints, aside from red which also seems to be problematic, are fantastic.

Incidentally, my paint swatch on the bottles idea is still one of my favorites. It gives me an idea of both dried color and texture without having to look. When you have a paint obsession like I do and have several hundred bottles, my brain lacks the capacity to remember every color's consistency and how much thinner I need to use to make it functional.
