Glitter Blast Spray Paint

Posts: 2349 Threads: 79

Okay, here is a preliminary report on using this Glitter Blast spray paint stuff...

Here's what the end result is, anyway. This stuff sprays right out of a can! Kinda neat! It's also kind of a pain, but... I'm no painter (or wizard, like Jeff) so I gotta do what I gotta do...

This is layered light coats of the Glitter Blast paint and about three coats of clear lacquer. The color is Bronze something or other...

I think it turned out kind of nice. This is a cheap Ludwig Accent (? I think) kit I used for the experiment. I'll post pix of the entire kit when I get it back together.

That looks really nice!! Is this a rattle can paint or gun only? Looks like a very nice alternative to the sparse glitter wraps found today.

If there was a way to blend the Golden Glow with the Posh Pink...might make a nice pink champagne alternative.

Sorry, I've got pink champagne on the brain...and evidently I'm a poet. :p

This would be good for poorly pitted Supra's and Acrolite's too.

Wow! Check out the Color Offerings. Really nice colors available. This could also be used for bass drum hoop inlays.

Hey fish., that drum came out great! I like the color and the density of the sparkles. Looks really nice. I may use this stuff on a future project.

Too many great drums to list here!
