You want all the additives and effects to be in the basecoat. Or if you want to be fancy, you could lay down a basecoat, then a transparent mid coat ontop of that, and depending how many coats you put on, will determine how much that color stands out. You don't want to put any pearl/metal flake in the clearcoat at all, whatsoever, no matter how many coats you put on top of it.
