Has anyone any experience of using the B&Q "Good Homes" paint that comes
with a sachet of glitter stuff.
Bought it - not realising the glitter had to be added in.

I thought glitter was one of those microplastic substances being phased out
as dangerous to wildlife?
I cannot actually think of a use case for paint with glitter in it, does
this act like textured paint? I'd imagine you will be finding glitter for
years.

Bet plenty of little girls can.

Sort of, bit it glitters.

I'd imagine you will be finding glitter for years.

Wots wrong with that ?

I'd argue that many car paints are effectively glitter-loaded paints. Metallic paints have shiny bits (albeit fine aluminium-based) and perlescent have fine mica-like bits.

Also, there are many suggestions for using glitter-loaded paints as a cheap alternative to "proper" reflective paints.

And dolls houses.

I'd guess that's how all metallic paints are made - as used on perhaps
most cars?
