i dont know how many people on here have used it , beware , it is finer than a fine thing , i got mine cheap as its bag was split , weighed it and only lost 10 grams so i will have more than enough for my job , the bigger problem is , i look like a glitter fairy after i transferred it to a plastic tub :yikes: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I saw the gold glitter on a shop front in South Italy a few years ago. It was stunning, it was used with gold mosaics on a shop front.

I reckon silver is used most as in most cases people seem to be using the mapeglitter with the quartz tile that has the silvers speckles in it.

I think Mapei also do a blue and a red glitter but, I dont think it is stocked in the UK.

I'm also thinking about using the glitter grout in my kitchen with the quartz tiles but do you not think it'll be a little too much?

I think it makes it more unique, better with a small amount of glitter I think, no more than 1.5 bags of glitter for every 3kg of kerrapoxy design. (just my opinion)

Well I am using it with plain black porcelain tiles in the bathroom and will see what that looks like before I make my decision - I was planning on cutting down the amount of glitter in there too as I really don't want it to look cheap but just a little different. I hope it works out!

Oh and by the way does anyone know the RRP for Keraproxy design 3kg as I have had some real random quotes - one for £25 plus vat and another for £75 plus vat???

Not allowed to talk prices in this part of the forum, but I would say no more than half way between those two prices and thats inlcusive of vat.

 

[channyfro]

Oh ok - Brilliant thanks for that!!!

I have PM you with an idea of cost mate, I would reccomend Tile Giant, price can vary just a little depending on colour chosen. I imagine you will probably go for the anthracite if you are using mapei, as they dont do black in Kerapoxy design.

let us know how you get on mate
