4. Applying the right primer to the surface
It is very important to apply the right primer to the surface you plan on painting. If you are applying over new drywall, it is recommended to use a water-based PVA primer. Applying over an existing wall, furniture, or wood? Apply a multi-purpose primer.
5. Light Coats and Heavy Patience
Glitter-infused paint must be applied in thin, even coats, with each coat allowed to fully dry to ensure even distribution and prevent clumping. When brushing, we recommend applying it in a crosshatch pattern to allow even distribution of the glitter.
6. Ventilation and Cleanliness
Work in a breathable space and make cleaning up as you go easy with soap and water during application.
7. Test Before Applying
Find an inconspicuous spot on your project to test out the glittering waters of your paint, ensuring it works well with your chosen material.
