FolkArt Multi-Surface Metallic Paint in Assorted Colors (2 oz), Metallic Nickel

It looks a little more gray but that's perfect for what I wanted. I bought it for the bottom of my table legs to make them look metal. Thankfully there was not a strong smell coming from the paint and it went on smoothly with no stirring or shaking of the bottle. I actually use a small sponge to apply it, only to the bottom part of the table legs.

Did the job. Used it to touch up some older cabinet hardware. Would buy again.

Like it alot! Better silver than most

If you have to choose between them, I think the Folk Art glitters are shinier and more stunning than these metallics so far, but these metallics are nice enough.Pictures could probably do them better justice, but they're close. I've uploaded a color chart where I have painted several different kinds of acryllic paint, including these Folk Art metallics and multi surface metallics, and put different glitters over some of them (and painted the glitters by themselves). See my glitters review for more info about them. In the chart, DF stands for Folk Art's Dragonfly Glaze (red-violet-blue shift, but so far I haven't really seen any shift. Its color is more just dependent on the background color it's painted on.)One of the other pictures is of various splatter and painting techniques on blue construction paper. (Like flicking a paint-loaded toothbrush). Platinum metallic would make beautiful stars (but white may still work better depending on what you want.)Overall, the metallic paints are fun, but red garnet is not very shiny at all compared to the others. Pretty color, though.In the picture with the glasses toppers, I painted the bottom halves of the plastic/acrylic toppers with various paints and sprayed them after they dried with Aleene's Acrylic Sealer Gloss Finish (which worked well to protect the paint when I accidentally washed one in water with my glasses!)The top one is painted with this Folk Art Multi Surface Metallic Garnet color. There is really no shine on it at all, especially when worn vertically with the way the light hits it. The protective spray may have altered it a bit, but I noticed it was never very shiny before I sprayed it. It has 2 full coats of paint.The second topper has Folk Art Metallic Plum Prune on its bottom half (2 coats, also a beautiful color). It's not labeled as multi surface, but it did keep a little more shine on this surface. Still, the shine isn't much. To give you an idea, before I sprayed the third one with a second coat of protectant (and maybe before I painted a second coat of paint on it... having trouble remembering), the painted bottom half of it looked like the same color as the bottom half of the middle one. It was only painted with a mix of Apple Barrel NON metallic acrylics, not multi surface either, but due to the smooth surface and single coat of gloss protecting spray, it had almost the same shine and color as the Folk Art Plum Prune.Again, these are some beautiful colors, but I wish there were a way to amp up the shine more in normal indoor lighting (I've yet to see them outside in full sunlight). Still, not everyone wants a nuclear glow to their paints, so these may be perfect for you. I don't think the protecting spray hurt the shine too much, but maybe it did a little, so maybe try a different protecting spray to see if there is less loss of shine. (Does Folk Art multi surface paint even need a protectant? I should have checked!)

I used this paint (my favorite color) to paint mats to match my room. My white frames had white mats and I wanted them this shade. It was true to color.I love the metallic sheen it has.

This paint worked very well on my projects.

Love the color

My review isn’t toward the quality, it’s towards the color. The bronze is NOT bronze - it’s copper. Please get your labeling corrected.I think I was sent a returned bottle because the seal was broken. I’m not surprised because of the drastic color issue. This is not bronze at all.
