Pearl changes the color of paint quite a bit. If you want to keep it red i'd suggest using red pearl in with the red paint. Otherwise it will make the red into a color you might regret.

Milano red is a three stage paint.

BASE COATS
TINTED CLEAR
CLEAR

the pearl effect is usually given by tinting the clear coat.
