The invention provides a free-spraying polyamide resin with metal effect, and a preparation method thereof. The free-spraying polyamide resin comprises, by mass, 70 to 95 parts of polyamide, 10 to 30 parts of a metal color pigment, 0.1 to 2 parts of a coupling agent, 0.1 to 0.2 part of zinc stearate, and 2 to 8 parts of a lubricating agent. The preparation method comprises following steps: the raw materials are mixed, are delivered into an extruder for melt blending and extrusion, and then cooing, drying, and cutting are carried out so as to obtain the free-spraying polyamide resin with metal effect. According to the preparation method, the metal color pigment is added into polyamide, and accessory ingredients such as the coupling agent and zinc stearate are added, so that the compatibility and dispersity of polymer matrix with the metal color pigment are improved, spraying effect of metal effect of the obtained product is achieved after injection moulding, increasing of production cost and ecological environment pollution caused by spraying are avoided, defects of injection molding products, such as flow lines and weld bond, are reduced, cost is reduced, and application prospect is promising.
