Everyone likes a good, safe-to-use water base. Even Meoded knows that. Their Sapphire Metallics are both translucent and suitable for brushes or rollers. If you want to be creative with these metallics, make a random pattern with a roller. Don't worry: You can allow apply this metallic either vertically or horizontally using a brush. Either way, you'll get a shimmering, opulent satin on your wall. Dark bases are used to maintain the metallic effect, covering 300 square feet in a gallon, and 75 square feet in a quart. Two coats will get the job done, but only use a third coat in a high traffic area.
