If you are looking for a paint to give an overall metallic effect, or you can add eye-catching details here and there, metallic acrylics may be your choice. But it is difficult to find an acrylic paint with perfect consistency, let alone a paint with a perfectly balanced metallic luster. Many look too shiny; others are too dull. Finding the perfect space between the two extremes is an art that few companies have mastered. Fortunately, we have found some excellent products to guide your choice. Check out our review below.

Although this set of metallic acrylic resin is an incredible choice for adults, it has also been proven to be safe and non-toxic, so there is no problem with using these paints with your children. Although the set includes a variety of silver, gold and bronze colors, it also offers a large number of bright hues, such as magenta and orange, and pastels such as lavender and sage. Packed in a sturdy box, it is easy to store after use.

The kit provides four tubes of 75 ml acrylic paint in classic gold, silver, copper and bronze metallic tones. The acrylic resin is thick enough to remain opaque when brushed, but thin enough to be easy to handle and does not require additional solvents. Although still wet, the paint is water-soluble; after drying, they are very durable no matter what surface it is applied to. The metallic color emits a charming shimmer, bringing the painting to life in the most eye-catching way.

If you are looking for a metallic paint set suitable for beginners, please consider this multi-pack. Includes 20 clamshell squeeze bottles (60 ml each) in various metallic tones-from wine red to peacock blue to forest green-all of which are non-toxic and easy to dispense. The set even comes with three brushes and a palette. The colors are all low-gloss metallic colors that emit light in the shiny gloss department without exceeding the top. The paint dries quickly, is waterproof and fade resistant, and is suitable for hard surfaces such as wood and metal, as well as soft surfaces such as canvas and clothing. All of these are provided at very reasonable prices.

Many metal multi-pieces include rainbow-like shades, but if you are really looking for a variety of silver and gold, then this suit is your best choice. You will get seven 2 oz gold, copper and silver paint tubes, plus a bottle of black paint. The paint is a water-based non-toxic paint, suitable for children. Each metallic pigment maintains its true hue when dried and is highly pigmented to achieve a truly opaque finish.

Many serious artists prefer to buy one paint at a time, rather than multiple pieces. If you are one of them, please consider Jacquard's 70ml metal acrylic paint cans. The paint has a very smooth texture and highly pigmented, so a little bit goes a long way. It is not only suitable for traditional painting, but also suitable for stencils, screen printing, etc.; it can even produce good results on softer surfaces such as fabrics and foamed polystyrene. Each pigment, whether it is classic silver and gold, or bolder shades such as violet or deep red, has a carefully calibrated sheen that is neither too bright nor too matte.
