Troubleshooting

Glitter is not evenly distributed.

Ensure thorough and consistent mixing of the glitter additive with the paint before application. Stir frequently during painting.

The shimmer effect is not as prominent as expected.

Apply two coats of paint to enhance the glitter effect. Use a good quality paint to ensure the glitter particles are fully suspended.

Glitter settles at the bottom of the paint can.

Stir the paint well before each application to redistribute the glitter. If the settling is excessive, consider using a paint mixing stick during the painting process.
