What Is Metallic Wall Paint?

Metallic wall paint is a type of paint containing small metal particles, such as copper or iron. Each type of metal gives the paint a unique colour and finish! There are silver, gold, and bronze metallic wall paints, while traditional metallic paints often have a grey, metal-like appearance. The metallic particles reflect light in all directions, creating a metallic effect. Depending on the lighting, the paint offers a different look from each angle. Metallic wall paint, as the name suggests, is a variant of wall paint with a metallic look. Additionally, metallic sprays and metallic lacquers are also available. You can also give normal water-based wall paint or lacquer a metallic-like appearance by adding glitter!

Combining Metallic Wall Paint

If you want to combine metallic wall paint with standard wall paint, you may wonder which colours complement metallic finishes. Of course, colour choice is a matter of personal taste, but a combination such as metallic silver and RAL 7044 (cool grey) is particularly striking! Pairing silver metallic wall paint with cool grey can create a sleek, modern look, perfect for minimalist or contemporary interiors. Or you might prefer combining Metallic Gold with Deep Blue for a luxurious and elegant effect. This colour pairing adds sophistication and opulence to any space. You can also mix and match these colours depending on your preferences and interior style. The key is to choose a colour palette you love that enhances the ambience of your room!

Tip from De Verfmenger

Ensure you first apply a solid base coat in the right colour. Only use metallic wall paint for the final layer! Starting directly with metallic paint may not provide full coverage, requiring more layers. What a waste...

How to Paint Your Walls with Metallic Paint

Painting your walls with metallic paint? It’s easier than you think! Achieving a metallic finish on your walls may seem daunting, but with the right products and techniques, you can easily transform your walls. Start by preparing your surface. Clean the wall thoroughly, and if necessary, apply a wall primer. Lastly, make sure you protect areas that don’t need painting by taping or covering them.

Want to seamlessly paint your wall with a metallic finish? Follow this step-by-step guide!

1. Step 1. Preparation:

   Preparation is half the job, and this is especially true for painting with metallic wall paint. Ensure the surface is clean by using a cleaner such as Bleko B-clean. Use the right products, such as a high-quality roller, for the best results.

   
   
2. Step 2. Masking:

   After cleaning, tape off skirting boards and corners you don’t want painted. Tip: Use tape with masking film to protect your floor with ease!

   
   
3. Step 3. Apply Primer:

   If needed, apply a primer after cleaning the surface and masking off areas. Unsure if you need a primer? Try this test: Wet a cloth and hold it against the wall. If moisture is absorbed, the wall is porous and requires a primer.

   
   
4. Step 4. Painting:

   Once the walls are prepped, you can start painting! Work from left to right and top to bottom. Paint wet-on-wet to avoid streaks and marks.
