Rustoleum Metallic Finish

Post by sunluvva »

Is it possible to get Metallic finish Rustoleum in a tub that I can roller on or is it only in spray cans?

You can get it and I have tried it - it is very difficult to get a good finish with it, nowhere near as easy as the standard gloss. The metallic effect looks awful! Possibly with a heck of a lot of practice it may be effective but....

No its not possible to roller metallic as you'd never get an even suspension of flakes. Would look like a dogs dinner..,.. :shock:

I reckon it'd come out like brushed on hammerite!
