This stuff is pretty great, and they ship really fast.
Each bag is 25grams, priced at 10 dollars im pretty sure.


I actually used 3 quarts of clear coat because i used flake a swell.
They say its one quart for every 25 grams unless you don't want
it to be very transparent. I went ahead and just followed the given
rules.

First thing you wanna do is of course sand the area where your painting
and prime it. Then lay down a basecoat. I went with metallic silver.

Now just mix your paint.

You dont want to mix it too fast otherwise you will get bubbles and paint will also slosh everywhere, so just keep it calm.

I took it a step further and laid down some flake some a different website.

Decided to add some more flake for my second coat and it looks amazing, pictures do not do it justice at all.

color doesn't do it for me, the silver base was nicer imo
but it looks pretty good for a driveway job

one critique - If I went to the trouble of prepping and spending money on paint and glitter I would have taken a little more care masking for cleaner results.
