v1rtus Silver Glitter Paint Additive NEW 2019 - Mix with Any Water based Emulsion Paint for Perfect Luminous Paint Finish on Interior or Exterior Wall - 100g

These paint crystals have made my bedroom room magical. I am surprised my husband didn't complain but he loves it too. I started off painting the walls. It looked so lovely I just wanted to add it to everything. Aside from the walls I have used it in gloss paint to do the doors and skirting boards. My bedroom draws/wardrobe have had the glitter make over, My fireplace also had a lick of glitter paint. I also added it to metallic paint to revamp an old mirror. Everything now sparkles. I used the suggested ratio of 100g to 1.5 litre paint, however I can see how using less would also be sufficient enough to sparkle your walls I would advise for best effect use silk paint, not matt. I found the more sheen the paint has the better the sparkle. The same applies with wood paints, ie It works better in gloss paint than it does in satin paint. The only bug bear is that it does need a nice lighted room to see the sparkles. I first used this glitter in my hallway. The natural lighting in this area is not the best and I can barely notice the sparkle (unless light is on). I have since done my bedroom which has loads more natural light and I love it.. It sparkles Perfectly. I tried to get a good photo but being as I used white paint it doesn't photograph well to show the true extent of It's sparkling loveliness. This one around my light switch you can see sparkles. I would highly recommend this glitter

Item delivered on time and we'll packaged. I heard many mixed reviews so was hard to gauge. However I took the plunge and the results very good and considering I am pretty hard to please. Ok.the first time used I gave it to a decorator to do for me..hallway and reception area.Used Dulux pure white vinyl silk 10litres believe he used 5 packets..initially I was not happy as unless I looked hard I could only see a shimmer effect. However the key thing to note the lights have to be bright and sunlight. I purchased another batch and did a house I was renovating used cheap b&q Magnolia vinyl silk 10 litres and mixed in 4 packs..surprisingly it came off a lot better and as soon as you enter the room you see the effect immediately..one thing to note you need to really stir it very well if not some areas will come out grey blotchy. I tried to buff it after but did not notice any difference or get more sparkly affect..definitely using again as friends have commented on what a nice and classy look. Now doing the whole house in white with the glitter including the ceilings. Have noticed that on some of the skirting boards done with white gloss the glitter has managed to get on it.still brings a nice shimmer effect. Do not apply the glitter in the roller tray and stir ....mix it very well in the paint tub.

It's recommended to use one 500g pack per I think it's 2ltrs of paint for a five percent sparkle. Well that was just not enough sparkle for me so I bought extra and added to paint. Think I added a little much as paint had a slightly sandy texture when I came to paint my bathroom wall. Initially I was a bit disappointed but it says to buff the walls with a white scourer and oh boy! I love my sparkling wall 😁 sometimes it looks more sparkling than others it really depends on the light. But basically this is a very good product will definitely be using again in my bedroom. It is very important to buff the walls and this can be done with a drill attachment if covering a large area or you just don't have much energy, but set drill to a slow setting and only lightly touch the wall and keep it moving ! One pack will give you a light sparkle but two in 2ltrs give and awesome sparkle. It's also best to buff as soon as the paint is dry don't wait til the next day. However this is dependent on just how much sparkle you want. I used on a light grey and it's very impressive but think a darker colour would really show this colour glitter off. Unfortunately it doesn't photo great.

i was dubious about this product, but mixed the silver with a dark blue on wall and ceiling to create a night sky effect for my 10 year old daughter and it has delivered a really subtle shimmer, that she loves. it was really easy to mix with the paint, and really easy to apply. I didn't notice it at all going on, but once dried and brushed over with a clean soft brush, the glitter shimmered through. really lovely. this is not a nightclub sparkle, it is a subtle shimmer, which is exactly what I was after.

Hi, thanks for taking your time to read this review, i hope it helps you, if it does please do give it a 'helpful' rating.First of all, you must be looking for paint glitter because you either want your walls to look extra WOW or because you're daughters been bugging you for shiny wallpaper, well in both these cases, this oaint glitter is great.Its extremely simple to use, so does not really need instructions, just common sense, you can either mix it youself, just add it to any paint you're using, wether is be matt paint or another and give it a realy good mix to ensure the glitter is spread out across the whole volume of paint, then like a normal paint, just apply to your walls.It gives this glittery look when a light shines to it, but be aware, if you're painting a large room or a medium sized room, you might need more than one for a large paint tub, because sometimes in large volumes of paint, one packet is not enough to make a noticeable difference on your walls, so it could be a waste, do read instructions on website and it shows you how much to add tvo a certain ML of paint,.Overall, I think this paint glitter is great for all kinds of paintwork, wether it be an office, a study or a bedroom, its good for everything, and adds that extra wow factor.

I haven't used this color yet on much of a scale. But I have used the silver and a teal color on walls and cabinets and I LOVE IT. A lot of reviews were negative, saying the glitter just didn't show through. The trick is simple; you have to use a soft abrasive cleaning pad, like those green scrubbies, and when the paint is COMPLETELY dry, lightly buff it. The difference is AMAZING!You'll have to decide how sparkly you want your project to be and use the glitter accordingly. For a kids' bedroom, you may use more glitter, because kids like it, so I would use 1 1/2 - 2 packages per gallon. You likely would not want that intensity on a full living room wall. There are a coupe of ways to achieve the end results, with varying sparkle coverage. If your wall is going to need 2 coats of paint, don't use the glitter in the first coat, use it all in the final coat. If you really want to blast the room with sparkle, mix your glitter in a clear top coat, for the absolute maximum effect. Even with the clear, I would recommend using the pad to buff lightly to expose the pure effect of the raw glitter.I didn't think the buffing was that important the first time I used it. I was painting cabinets, a teal color, and kept adding and adding until my paint got so think I was getting angry, thinking I either wasted my money, or was going to spend a fortune buying enough additive to matter. Then I remembered I read about the buffing, and grabbed a pad under the sink. WOW, what a difference! I used the fine mix, and the results are just gorgeous. When I get them hung and the kitchen finished, I'll include a photo.I love these colors, and now I have to control my urge to want to repaint everything inside and out, but that might be a little too much, lol. I recommend this paint additive to anyone who needs some sparkle in their world.And trust me on that buff thing.

The media could not be loaded.  Bought this product to add into the paint for my daughters room amd it did not dissapoint! I used 3 packets for a 1 gallon paint. It gives the room that extra umf it needs for a little girls room.I painted a ponk mauve color and ordered the rose gold glitter and it was perfect.

The media could not be loaded.  Added two packets to about 3/4 gallon of paint. The glitter is very fine grain. After drying I used the recommended pads, but had a very large area to do. I didn’t like the “streaks” it left due to uneven pressure points. So I used I rough terry cloth bar towel over my flat mop and scrubbed the walls with that. It worked just as well and a lot quicker. My daughter loves it and doesn’t want to leave her room now.

This stuff is great. I mixed it with dark green and my wall is all glittery. It looks especially nice at night when the street light outside makes it glitter. Looks very festive.

I used this product with paint to make a silver glitter wall.Awesome look… I’m so pleased with this glitter/ perfect additive for paintMake sure you know what you are doing, make sure you add it to the correct type of paint. If used with the wrong texture of paint, this product will not give you the look you wantThis job is very time consuming and messy.
