150ml Mirror Effect Spray Paint Aerosol - Silver

This stuff is amazing! Just don't spray the outside. I mean, you can, and it will look nice and silvery, just not mirrored. It is clearly stated you must spray the INSIDE of the item, or the back side if it is flat glass sheet, but I see so many reviews moaning it doesn't work when they used it wrong. Read the instructions peeps! I'm using it to make dollshouse mirrors out of an old bit of broken glass picture frame and it does look exactly as a mirror should, reflective!

Not bad. I tried creating the mercury glass mirror effect as per rust-oleum's video on a popular video sharing website. I followed these steps: 1. Cleaned the glass with a glass cleaner. 2. Lightly sprayed the glass with a solution of a third vinegar and two thirds water. 3. Sprayed a coat of the mirror paint. 4. Gently dabbed away some of the paint with some kitchen towel. 5. Repeated steps 2-4. 6. Sprayed with about 5 more coats of mirror paint, no dabbing. (they continue dabbing in the video) 7. Sprayed with some black paint. I had a couple of problems. When dabbing I made a few sideways movements so there are some wipe marks which I then couldn't get rid of though they did reduce with further coats. A fly landed on the black paint and removing that caused a hole which I then had to fix and this got worse before it got better as a big patch of paint ended up coming off and had to be reapplied. I can clearly see where this was though not as badly as I first feared. The mirror paint dries really quickly. You can see it drying, going from matt to glossy as it dries in about a minute or so, so it can be resprayed very quickly. It does smell but no worse than other spray paints. I'm reasonably happy with the end result. It isn't as clear as a proper mirror and it looks quite dirty and bitty as though the glass wasn't clean when I started. It was spotlessly clean though. I was going for a vintage look and it is a bit like the mirrors you see in stately homes that are really old and just not as reflective as modern mirrors. You can see the flowers reflected well enough in the end result, and I've zoomed in to show the dirty, bitty effect.

This is great! I had some old windows from house renovation and have now turned them into mirrors for inside the house. You spray the paint on the back of the window and it turns it into a mirror. Make sure you really clean the glass first - first one I did I didn't get it super clean and there were some streaks but looks like it's antiqued glass/ mercury glass. Happy with the result - took about 2 x cans per window.

I have used this product twice: once to paint three large rough-textured glass baubles by Nkuku, and once to paint plain maple/beech wood beads. It worked very well on the baubles, not so well on the wood. The baubles were a transparent turquoise and I wanted an opaque silver mirror finish. I taped up their hanging loops and pegged them onto an outdoor washing line to spray them. One coat made them silver, two coats made them opaque and shiny, and three coats gave them a lovely bright mirror finish. On the smoother parts of the glass, there was a true reflective mirror effect. The paint dried very quickly, covered the baubles evenly, and left an impressive tight finish, even when I sprayed too much and there was some run-off/dripping, it still dried evenly. There was no colour transfer at all after they dried. I wasn't using it to create a perfect flat mirror, so I can't testify as to how well it functions for that purpose. The wooden beads required 7-8 coats in order to leave a solid silver finish. The colour transfers terribly, even days after air-drying thoroughly. It doesn't weather the lightest scratch or scrape. In fairness, the product isn't designed for wood, but I'm just confirming their diagnosis! Two final notes: 1. The can drips a bit, so use it over newspaper or similar. 2. The paint gets all over your skin if you're not covered up properly when using it, and on my fair skin it was totally invisible until I washed it off, so I didn't know it had happened until hours later. Be very careful to cover up and wear suitable goggles/mask.

The photo is of the back of an old mirror for the bathroom - completely flaked in parts dropping onto the sink. So I thought it patch it with this and first coat and the plain is mirrored as you see in the photo. I will give two more coats, but at least it's now mirrored even if it's not perfect. If you take time and cut off the backing in straight lines then I'm sure it would be better

I have used this many years ago and pleased to see it works as well as it used to. Follow the instructions and you can't go wrong.

Not mirror like and patchy, dull silver. Very disappointed and a complete waste of money.

I purchased this to cover radiator pipes. Due to the bend in the pipes, I couldn’t find a clip on cover that would go over the bend so I decided to paint them instead. The copper look was spoiling the look of my bathroom as it is grey and white. I think two coats was enough to cover the copper and looks really good. It didn’t give the chrome look that I was hoping for but despite that, the satin finish still looks good and better than the copper. Some of the paint went on the sellotape I was using to hold up backing paper when spraying. That did go chrome looking but needed a few coats to give a dense chrome look so I suspect if spraying on a shiny surface, chrome appearance could be achieved. I had enough to spray paint a shelf I am planning to install in my bathroom too. It used to be black with beech look surfaces. I think the paint covered that quite well too.
