Review on ✨ FolkArt Enamel Glitter and Metallic Paint - Assorted Colors (2 oz), SKU#: 2798, Glitter Gold by Kristen Simpson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love folk art! That's great!

Despite being a small 2 ounce tube, it took me very little to add a very cool sparkle accent to my project - the color is very realistic and to me the closest thing to leaf colors . I like that the metallic paint cleans on par with other acrylic paints. The only downside is that unlike non-acrylic leaf paints, it takes multiple coats to adhere to the plastic. So if you buy to work with any type of plastic, you need 2-3 times more of it than one thicker, one layer is not acrylic. Although this is a preference. The cleaning is amazing! Easy to clean with just soap and water (I've never been able to do this with non-acrylic paints and did NOT expect metallic paints to be so easy to clean). I would highly recommend this item to anyone looking for an affordable yet high quality metallic paint. or someone working on something very detailed - this paint allows you to make small mistakes and correct them (while the paint is still wet) without blemish - I must add for those with kids - I don't usually trust metallic paints more than oil for children (over 10 years old), but it is real acrylic, so not only for fine work by adults, but also for young artists to work with, although it is not non-toxic, it does not cause concern about any or fumes found in many leaf colors.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
