The media could not be loaded. I went to Lowes and purchased "Valspar Ultra Interior Paint & Primer" - Semi-Gloss Paint. The Paint Color Sample was 'Sherwin Williams' and Lowes has these within their paint color selections. I chose "ARGOS HGSW7065" as my paint color. It is for a little girl's room and I didn't want to go too dark in the gray family, and even with two coats of paint, it is the perfect shade of gray.I read multiple reviews before hand and really appreciated all the tips. I think the key is to purchase a paint mixing tool to attach to your electric drill. I placed the gallon of paint inside a five gallon bucket in order to avoid spills or a mess. I put '1' coat of paint on the walls WITHOUT the glitter additive, and let it dry thoroughly.Next, I used '1' gallon of paint, and slowly mixed in '2' bags of silver glitter. I then proceeded to fill my paint roller pan and would use up that batch, then use the drill to mix up the paint inside the gallon bucket thoroughly, and then poor up the next batch of paint and so on. This way, my paint didn't thicken up or dry up.As I was painting, I did see some glitter begin to shine through, but when it was thoroughly dry, I actually saw a ton of glitter, so much that I contemplated NOT buffing the walls. BUT, I am glad that we did, because slightly buffing the walls, the glitter immediately came to life. (Buffing the walls does not knock off glitter, it simply removes the paint that is covering the glitter, but does not remove paint from the walls).One of the helpful tips was to purchase a ScotchBrite pad. I purchased some ScotchBrite refill pads and only used one. The buffing process took about 45 minutes and actually was very easy. It sounds overwhelming, but it was honestly surprisingly easy. I was very hesitant to attempt this project, but am very happy that I did so and although it sounds difficult, it really was almost as easy as it is to simply paint a regular wall. The glitter is a fine consistency and although I used '2' bags to my '1' gallon of paint, it is not overwhelming or too much whatsoever.I tried to take video and pictures of the room at nighttime, and they did not do justice whatsoever. However, the videos in previous reviews are a great example of the results. I would 1,000% recommend this product and project to friends and family and I would hands down do this again in the future. I am glad that I read multiple reviews and did not give in to thinking that this would be too difficult of a project.Update: See the attached video, but this absolutely does NOT do it justice. I LOVE it!UPDATE: September 2024Back at it again 8 Months later! I’m still in LOVE!!! I painted a second room using the same paint and the same silver glitter and this time I added 2 1/2 packs of silver glitter to 1 gallon of paint and did it exactly the same technique as I did in January. When I finished, the glitter was coming through so well that I actually contemplated not even buffing the walls. I will continue to recommend this product and I plan on doing a third room in the next month. It truly ROCKS!!!! Even though I tried to take pictures and take videos during the day or night, it just truly does not do justice to how awesome it shows up! I had to take down the original video to add an updated one so I hope this is helpful bc Amazon allows one video only.

Just what I was looking for. The sparkling effect is so pretty & was very easy to use!

The media could not be loaded. 10/10 Recommend !!!!I got two packets and used on a half gallon of paint of choice ! Got two packets of the buffers and used all 4 . I used the other half of my color first as a base layer. And then with the other half used the glitter on as much wall as I could cover ! It turned out so so beautiful. During the day the sun hits it and it sparkles so beautifully and with the light off and a flash Light you can DEFINITELY see the holographic effect of it and just how much it pops and all the colors . It definitely dried pretty quick but I let it sit overnight instead of a few hours just to make sure . Love love love !!!! My daughter loves it just as much !

I will change my review if we can figure out how to get the glitter evenly distributed but it leaves alot of lines. We have tried 2 coats, have used 2 different rollers and have tried buffing. None were of any luck.The glitter doesn't really show up but we got it. We ended having to do 4 coats total probably would have only needed 1 or 2 if we could have figured it out but what we did to fix the issue is mix tiny amounts at a time and I mean tiny and mix 3 min minimum with the mixing attachment to the drill and sprinkled the glitter in slowly while mixing and really just eyeballs the amount til it was to our desire but used way less than what we had been using previously then used a thinner padding roller (idk what it is called) and also did thin coats applying every direction possible to really work it in and it came out flawless and even everywhere. Now that we have it down it is easy. I researched on here and google and the actual hemway website for I can not tell you how many hours and I used every tip possible that I read. Was a pain initially though.

Love the effect it gives, however I should have added two packets per one gallon of paint for my bedroom for a more noticeable shimmer. As of now I have one packet mixed with grey paint on my walls and when the sunlight enters, the whole room sparkles. My walls were already textured but adding the glitter definitely made it even more textured so if you want to be able to wash your walls, add a clear coat or something on top to fill in the gaps.

Love this purchase put the glitter in grey paint in it turn out beautiful my dining room wall is popping

The media could not be loaded. I purchased the iridescent color and mixed it with white. I I love the idea of this, however I wouldn’t suggest using this color with white because you can barely see it. I will purchase again but possibly a different color.

The media could not be loaded. I am so happy and pleasantly surprised with this glitter! You really have to trust the process, I got nervous at first seeing the glitter get lost in the paint after mixing thoroughly but look at that end result!! It’s perfect! This is the black ultrafine glitter with matte black paint. To get this level of sparkle, we used 3 packs of the glitter in a little under a gallon of paint (we poured just a little paint out to fit the glitter and so we could mix it without any overflow). Our exact process was: two coats of plain matte black base coat followed by two coats of the black glitter paint, then buff!! We bought some dish sponges and used the abrasive side of those to buff. YOU WILL NOT SEE SPARKLE WITHOUT BUFFING! Happy painting!
