Surface Techniques

Magic Metallics on Glass
Spray the glass surface with MM-516 Surface Primer or apply any MM-502 Matte Sealer to give the slick glass surface a "tooth" for the Metallic to adhere to. Apply 2-3 coats of the Metallic before applying a Rust or Patina Finish. Seal with any Magic Metallic Sealer when complete to stop the oxidation process.

Magic Metallics on Metal
If you are using an old, vintage piece of metal, wipe first with denatured alcohol to remove excess dirt and start decorating with Magic Metallics. Seal with any Sealer when complete to stop oxidation process.

Magic Metallics on Ceramic Surfaces
Base coat your piece with an acrylic stain like Magic Metallic Undercoats and apply Magic Metallics. Seal with any Magic Metallic Sealer when complete to stop the oxidation process.


Magic Metallics on Walls
For a bigger project, such as a wall, place puddles of Magic Metallics on a large palette and spritz on one or more of the Patinas randomly. With a large sponge, pick up color from different puddles in no particular order and sponge on. Add Metallic Finishes and Patinas to your palette, as necessary, keeping no particular order and sponge on.



For best results, it is a good idea to experiment and test your application methods on a scrap piece of wallboard or other material. Magic Metallics can be ordered in custom sizes for larger projects. Magic Metallics can be used on virtually any architectural surface: signs, metal gates, embossed wallpaper, drywall and more!
