Metal Flakes

Our Durable “metal flakes” are a great way to add sparkle to any paint job. Our Hexagon flakes are easy to spray, and solvent resistant enough to use in two part epoxy paints. They are heat resistant to 400 Degrees F. Each jar contains about 50 or so grams of metal flakes, or 1 measuring cup.  They can be used in many different mediums and even our small .004″ micro metal flakes have been known to give off big sparkle for a low price.  Several sellers on Ebay are actually buying our flakes, doubling the price, and reselling them. Since the demise of Old School Flake, we have taken over the top spot for custom paint metal flakes in the US.  All of our flakes are perfectly solvent resistant so that they can be mixed into the toughest paints without fading or bleeding like the hobby store glitters do. When using a black base coat, our .004″ metal flakes can cover an entire car using 1 jar.  As we often say, one jar does a car! We have seen people use many more for extra sparkle, though.  Get a great deal on metal flakes when you shop at Paint With Pearl.
