Recommended for use with water-based wall and ceiling emulsions, this additive is compatible with most interior paints. This makes it ideal to use with wall, wood and metal paints for a host of DIY projects. A beautiful base color will maximize the design effect of glitter, so be sure to use a premium line of paint that delivers quality results, like ben ® Interior paint. Choosing a premium basecoat/paint color ensures the beauty you are looking for in your glitter wall project. In the video, I’ve painted the glaze over a Clark & Kensington paint color called Silver Glamour, which is silver grey with a hint of lavender.According to the recommended mix ratio, the product doesn’t turn out much cheaper than the V1rtus. However, most users report that the product still provides satisfactory results when the same quantity is mixed with 1.5L of paint. And in this case, Hemway is more affordable, provided that buffing unleashes the desired sparkling effect. I found out immediately one of the key benefits of this pure acrylic polymer ( as its referred to in this state ), when mixing it into thermochromic pigment, a light fluffy and hydrophobic pigment (repells water like oil), this stuff, unlike normal gloss or matte mediums requires no machine mixing, it took in the pigment as if it were a polar solvent that "wets" the powder instead of just slowly blending in and gradually forming a suspension. Keep stirring the product throughout the process to prevent the formation of patches. Leave the first coat to dry before adding another coat if needed.

While Benjamin Moore does not manufacture glitter paint, we believe that the foundation for any decorative project—especially a glitter wall—begins with an interior paint basecoat. Glitter glaze is a clear paint containing glitter crystals. The glaze is intended to be used on pre-painted walls and it usually provides a more sparkly finish than glitter additives. Comprehensive Research: Our team dedicates extensive time and effort to research and analyze products, so you can make informed decisions. use a large roller. I’ve painted this on using a brush, small roller, and large regular roller. The large regular roller has the most even application.glitter! the "pigment" in glitter paint isn't >300um talcum stuff, its <1mm particles, easily filtered with a broad filter. Independent: We will tell you exactly what we think of a product and we would never recommend anything we wouldn't use ourselves. My room doesn’t get sunlight so trying to find a light to show off the amount of glitter on the walls was difficult. I used a flashlight in the video and a led stage light in the photo, that’s why the photo is that gorgeous purple. The true color of the wall is in the video. Water-based and non-toxic, the glaze is suitable to use in poorly ventilated environments or in your children’s room. Application is easy and straightforward; just stir the glaze and apply it with a smooth roller or wide bristles brush, depending on the surface. Unbuffed, a pouch of additive is suitable for up to 1.5L of paint. However, considering the price of a pouch, we recommend mixing the quantity with 2.5L of paint and buffing the wall with buffing pads to unleash your new sparkling effect.

in short this pure acrylic polymer is the best stuff ive ever dealt with, itl probably handle the super heavy glow powders well too! Having a dry, fully cured wall/surface on which to apply the decorative paint of your choice can be just as important as proper wall prep. “Dry time” is the time paint needs to dry before you apply another coat, while the cure time is the time a coating needs to exhibit optimum performance results. Recently, after weeks upon weeks of investigation (like 5 weeks maybe) ive at last solved a huge personal problem. Glitter additives and glitter glazes are designed for the same purpose – to add sparkles to walls and other interior surfaces. The difference is in the way they’re used. I used two coats of the glitter, but Rustoleum suggests 3-4 coats. If I do that, I’ll need 40 cans for my project (15x25 ft room) and that feels ridiculous and expensive.

Ideal for kids’ bedrooms, an accent wall, or even painted indoor furniture, people love glitter paint for the iridescent shimmer it provides over any base paint color. In the first picture I had just repainted my bookshelf a light grey concrete color, after Appling the glitter paint I noticed the color had changed, in the second and third picture it had become a peach pink hue color. The glittler paint is on there but its hard to see yhe glitter on camera. It's not a big change of color but you can definitely see the tinge of peach pinkish hue. So that kind of made me sad. I really liked the first paint I had put on the book shelf. I'm glad I wasn't doing a wall and then put this glitter paint on it after. The whole wall would of been peach pink.Glitter additives are supplied as glitter crystals to mix with the emulsion of your choice. Some additives can be mixed in all types of paint, others are compatible only with water-based emulsions, while others are incompatible with speciality paints, even if water-based.
