i've had good success with Rust-Oleum Metallic, Brilliant Metal Finish. the kind i get looks black with some silver glitter in it. just put it on in VERY thin coats, wait, put on another thin coat etc. i just use lots of newspaper and some wide masking tape and mask off the entire back side of the tank so no spray could spill over anywhere.
i think the stuff works pretty well, as i've had to use razors to get it off in the past when looking for a crack.
if you use a fan on the back side in b/w coats it allows it to dry faster, and get the whole job done within a couple of hours.
