Its a lot of work and every painter have his own tricks and ways to do this - and finally not every livery have the same "effects". Just try it - use layer for layer and add dirt and shine - its a trial and error game. Also Tom Collins learned from paint to paint and improved his paint all over the years.
An artist never say how he painted a picture.
A chef never says his secret behind a good sauce.
A magician never say his secrets.
I did around 30-40 PA paints so far - and with every paint i add new "effects".
Be happy that there is a paintkit out. Quiet easy to use. This is not a matter of course.

Well, my opinion: why not get some planes new and shiny to paint? A plane with dirt is real, but not so welcomed and beautiful.
