Hi Steve, paint used is
Tamiya Fine Surface Primer (L), Matt Black Auto paint,
Tamiya PS-47 Iridescent Pink/Gold, all topped of with Auto Clear Lacquer & buffed up with 3M Finishing Polish.
Hope this help's Steve.

I have taken a shine to the idea of iridescant paints.
Tamiya make another one in addition to the one you chose. However,
Tamiya say:
"These spray paints were developed especially for decorating transparent polycarbonate bodies used in R/C car modeling. Each can contains 100ml of paint, which is the appropriate amount for finishing a model. Paint the body from the inside, keeping the can about 30cm from the surface. After curing, apply another coat. Small details should be brush painted beforehand using
Tamiya bottle paints for polycarbonate. These paints are impervious to oil and fuels, so they can be safely used on gas-powered R/C bodies. Never use these paints on plastic models."
Note the last sentence, which
Tamiya confirmed to me by email. Despite that, you obviously succeeded in using it on styrene
