The finish will naturally look hand-painted due to its metallic gleam as well as the nature of the mineral content – in other words, some appearance of texture is to be expected. This means it is great for a huge range of effects. If, however, a super-smooth or uniform finish is desired, the product can be sprayed by adding a little water.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA straightforward metallic look is often most pronounced when the product is applied over a base similar in colour to the paint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoverage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 500ml tin will provide a single coat of up to 8.5m\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e.
