AKA 'Arabian Black'.
Paint code 697 and PNF. (Same colour, two different codes, it's a Rover/Land Rover thing)
It's a pearlescent & contains very very small amounts of pearlescent material - the formulation I have shows pearl blue, pearl white, pearl violet & pearl red gold - so it's quite subtle instead of the sparkly effect from a metallic.
You won't get it as an enamel from your last link as being a pearl it comes as a basecoat & will also need a clear lacquer which is what gives the shine.

Small spraying kit. Can be expensive. For door handles something with an underneath glass jar. around a tenner. better quality stuff like iwata neo for 50. but coverage is slow. really a modeller or artists airbrush. Takes about 20 minutes to spray 4 coach bodies in 4mm with a refill every go around minimum 5 coats.

They will work with larger compressors .

Careful with primer cans some can be very lumpy

Have a look at retrorestore ont you tube. He and his son spray with devilbiss guns and give out tips. In some of the video's he talks about pressure, water traps and spray patterns for the nozzles.
