Yes, metallic paint can be applied over standard wall paint, provided the surface is clean and free from imperfections. At Licata, our range of decorative finishes is developed to work seamlessly on prepared walls, giving them a striking metallic finish.

If the wall paint underneath is dark, a primer or base coat may be useful to help the metallics stand out. This ensures the colours like silver, gold or rose gold are consistent and bright once the new coat is applied.

Metallic finishes can completely transform small rooms, especially when used on a feature wall. The reflective quality of metallic paint bounces light across the interior, creating a sense of depth and space that plain wall paint often lacks.

In compact bedrooms or hallways, choosing shades such as rose gold or silver helps achieve a warm or cool tone depending on your preference. By focusing the metallic finish on one or two walls, you avoid overwhelming the space while still enjoying the unique effect.

Cleaning walls with a metallic effect should be done gently to preserve the finish. A soft cloth or sponge with mild soap and water is usually enough, keeping the metallic paint looking fresh without damaging the surface.

Because Licata products are breathable and washable, maintaining them is straightforward. Avoid abrasive tools or harsh chemicals that could dull the metallic finish, and you will save the room from unnecessary wear while keeping the feature wall in top condition.

Using a primer before applying metallic paint is often recommended, especially if the existing wall paint is uneven or very dark. A primer helps the surface filter out imperfections and provides a consistent base to achieve the full brilliance of metallics.

Licata supplies primers suited to different surfaces, from plaster to wood and trim. A well-prepared base ensures the metallic finish, whether rose gold, copper or silver, adheres properly and produces a smooth, durable coat.

Yes, it is possible to achieve a rose gold metallic finish on interior walls using Licata’s decorative paints. The unique metallics in our range allow you to create a warm and contemporary look, perfect for a feature wall in a bedroom or living area.

Rose gold works particularly well when paired with neutral shades and modern furniture. By applying the paint carefully with a roller or brush, you can achieve a subtle metallic effect that highlights the light in the room and frames the space with a soft, stylish glow.
