Return 4 Keys Tips for Using the Frosted Glass Effect Spray PaintLike many of the products in the MTN PRO range, the translucent glass spray paint has a few secrets that can show the difference between an unsuccessful customization and a perfect and impressive project. We detail them below.
As explained in the product description and as we have told you before, MTN PRO Frosted Glass Effect is a spray paint that facilitates the frosted glass technique: it is a clear paint that makes glass translucent. A quality that is very useful for preserving privacy in different conditions: from shower glass to office windows.
However, its attractive finish can also become an ornamental element of unlimited possibilities, making it a very useful tool in glass decoration. However, knowing the secrets of how to use these products will make the difference and allow you to achieve truly amazing results.
1. CORRECT APPLICATION FOR AN EVEN FINISH
The thickness of the coat of the MTN PRO Frosted Glass Effect paint can affect the level of opacity of the surface. This is why it is essential for it to have a smooth coat if we want to create an even finish.
It is essential to apply the product in several coats, but as thin as possible. If we follow this premise, with 4 coats we will achieve a completely regular texture.
2. WHEN USING STENCILS, ALLOW FOR GENEROUS DRYING TIME
A very simple way to decorate a glass with frosted effect paint is to create designs using the stencil method. With adhesive elements such as masking tape or even creating your own stencils.
In this sense it is essential to take into account the distinctiveness of this paint, being that until it is completely dry its texture can be elastic.
So, if you want to have a perfect result and a defined shape left without flaws when removing the stencils, we recommend waiting patiently for 24 hours for the complete drying of the coat to consolidate.
3. HOW TO CLEAN IT EFFICIENTLY
The frosted glass effect paint is responsive to paint solvents, and especially to our MTN PRO Solvent, so this is the right product for cleaning it.
However, the rapid evaporation of the solvent can cause the product to disperse, regaining consistency after a few seconds. We therefore recommend applying MTN PRO Solvent generously and removing the solution with a disposable kitchen cloth.
4. CREATIVITY, THE KEY TO SUCCESS
After these three technical tips that are going to help you more than you can imagine, it only remains for us to conclude by addressing a more transcendental issue. The best advice we can give you to make your project impressive is that the real driving force behind your work should be creativity. Explore, research and experiment with different ideas to decorate glass, and get inspired by any element that you find attractive. The possibilities are endless.
