You want a little color variety in your living room, Bring kitchen or bathroom, but it should not degenerate into a complete renovation? Then you could, for example, set shiny accents with a metal effect color.
We show you, what's up.
With a few brush strokes, you can decorate the board of your stereo with metal effect paint, highlight the chimney or a memory board in the Rur (see pictures). Thanks to the real metal pigments, painting with "Creative Metal Effect Paint" from Dulux looks confusingly similar to the original material made of aluminum or stainless steel and has the advantage, that the processing is not so complex and also much cheaper (a 500 ml can costs approx 15,50 euros and is enough for around 4 sqm). The color lasts on both plaster and wallpaper, as well as on substrates such as wood, plastic, Glass, Porcelain and Styrofoam.
That's how it's done: For small areas or patterns, demarcate the area with masking tape. This creates clean color edges. The substrate must be dry and dust-free. In the pictured embossed wallpaper with checker plate structure, "Novaboss" from Erfurt, additionally block the brushed edge with acrylate, so the color doesn't run. Do not let acrylate dry, paint over it immediately and peel off the tape. The metal effect color is available in six tones.
