That is how I usually do it, perhaps you have the mixture too thin, I use quite a thick mixture. One other thing you could do, is order some of the new silver pearl, sheen,or shimmer airbrush color from Delores, she carries at least two different brands. I haven't tried them yet, so I can not tell you how they work.

: How do you get fondant or regular buttercream to have silver metallic coloring? Do you have to paint it on with something or just mix in some kind of special product? I tried tinting fondant grey and then I painted with a silver luster dust/lemon juice mixture but it didn't work at all.
