Hi there I was looking for the answer to the same question and came across this. Pearlescent has teeny weeny glass beads added to the paint, this caused weird light refraction hence you get a multicoloured paint effect (depending on which angle you view it from). Metallic has teeny weeny bits of reflective "stuff" added to the paint, hence light bounces off the relective surface.
They also stated that pearlescent it is best used in lighter colours.
Pearlescent / Metallic - has shiny particles in the paint that make it lustrous like a pearl (also called nacreous) or shiny like a precious metal, as well as more finely ground pigments that give it color. Light reflects from all these tiny particles that have a smooth reflective surface, which not only makes the paint luster, but gives it dimension depending on the angle of viewing. Generally, these beautiful paints are called metallic when they imitate metals like gold, silver, etc., and they are often called Pearlescent or Pearl, when they are other colors like white, blue, red, etc. Sometimes the pearlescent paints have courser shiny particles and the metallics have finer shiny particles to make them resemble metal further.
Iridescent/ Halo / Hi-lite / Interference - Iridescence is generally known as the property of certain surfaces which appear to change color as the angle of view changes, sometimes between two colors, and sometimes a whole rainbow. Iridescence may be seen commonly in soap bubbles and butterflywings. In paints it is caused by similar shiny smooth particles as pearlescent effects, only the particles have more than one reflective surface, and so the color of the paint changes depending on the angle of viewing. This is very popular in custom car paint jobs.

painting of oil is called oil paint and painting of vinyl is called vinyl paint
It makes a difference if you are putting it on a deck, as you suggest. Oil paint may not survive more than a year on an outdooor deck.
They are practically the same. I paint with fabric paints most times actually
Poly-amines are more durable, poly-amides are more resistant to moisture.
Any good paint retailer will carry an additive to put into your paint to achieve an iridescent finish. Read the label carefully for best results.

how can I tell the difference between acrylic and oil paint on my wall?
The most expensive car paint is iridescent paint. This paint is very unique because in low light the paint is very dark, like black, but in high light, the paint is the color applied, and is very bright.

no difference
There is a difference between industrial paint and regular household paint. Industrial was meant to last much longer than regular paint. There's also a huge difference in price as well.

emulsion paint: paint in which the binder is dispersed in water. enamel paint: pigmented varnish, glossy coating
The difference bewtween draw and paint is: when you draw you trace the lines or make a sketch. So, finally you have to paint what you have drawn or put color into the lines you have made before.
