Looking Glass®- Mirror Like Paint

Hi Fellow Stagers--

Do any of you have experience with Krylon's

Looking Glass®- Mirror Like Paint?

I saw this on the BHG website this morning (I'm inserting the link because I don't believe I can legally insert their photo here):  http://www.bhg.com/decorating/paint/projects/quick-refreshes-using-paint/?page=7.  What a great transformation for this lamp.  Gives me like a zillion ideas.

Here is the link to Krylon's website:  http://www.krylon.com/products/looking_glass_mirror_like_paint/ and if you scroll down you will see the adorable Holiday Votive Candles they created using this product.

I'm a nut with a can of spray paint and I love recyling things.  I'm asking if you have any experience with this product because in the past I've tried the stainless steel spray paint with less than stellar results.  Also, because I'm on Maui products are not readily available here like the mainland, so before I go into mail order mode, I'm curious about the results.

Thanks and happy staging,

Janet

Janet, thank you for posting this link. It really has some cool ideas. I never thought of transforming a lamp and it would make such a difference.

I love the link and thank you for posting.

Have a great day!

Looks like a cool product.  Sorry I have no experience with it.  I hope someone who does will comment so we can find out if it really is as good as it looks.  I can't imagine spraying the inside of that glass lamp base...sounds like it would be awkward.

Patrick, you are so welcome.

Indera--I've spray painted a lot of lamps but I thought this finish was spectacular. 

Sharon--So far no one has used the product but I think I will just go and try to find it and experiment on my own.  Looks too intriguing not to have in one's bag of tricks.

O-o-o this does look intriguing.  Like you I love spray paint (all paints actually) and if this effect can be achieved I would be SO-O happy.  Have you tried it yet?  Now, I'm going to Krylons site to get more info.  Thanks Janet.

Ginger--I can't find this product on Maui.  I will be on the mainland next month and as definitely going shopping.

Kathy--No one yet has used this and I'm dying of curiosity.  So, as I mentioned to Ginger above, I will find it on the mainland and go from there.  Do tell me if you find it and test it on something.  Thx.
