Metallic flakes

[Brett K]

Has anyone done an epoxy floor with metallic flakes with pictures they can share?

We carry and sell gold and silver metallic flakes. In our opinion they are hard to work with as they are cut from Mylar and are much 'lighter' than traditional flakes and harder to apply and harder to get down evenly as thy tend to clump. We may have some photos in the main office and will have our Marketing Dept check on Monday.

Usage has been in bars and restaurants mostly who want the glitter for reflective lighting.

Metallic fleck as are also about 4x the cost of regular flecks.

Thanks! Those look nice. I am considering silver, black, and white flakes on a light grey base.

I had metallic flakes mixed in with my black and white flakes. I really do not notice the metallic flakes in the floor. I was hoping for more of an effect. Wasn't really worth the extra cost.

Hi
Here is a pic with metallic flecks from a bar. Black base with gold flecks.

We agree, they get 'lost' in the floor in our opinion.
