DecoArt - Star Lite Topcoat

Star Lite Topcoat

Add brilliant sparkle to finished paintings with crystal-clear glitter

Glitter topcoats typically sacrifice clarity for sparkle, leaving your painted surfaces clouded beneath a layer of shimmer. DecoArt's Star Lite formulation maintains transparency while suspending fine glitter particles that catch light without obscuring the colors underneath. This matters when you've invested time in precise decorative painting or detailed folk art, you want sparkle that enhances rather than masks your work.

The acrylic formula adheres to wood, papier-mâché, terra cotta, and other porous craft surfaces, creating a protective glittering layer over any dried acrylic paint. Application feels similar to standard acrylic mediums, brushing smoothly without the gritty drag some glitter products create. Cleanup requires only soap and water before the topcoat dries, and the non-toxic formulation suits studio environments where ventilation matters.

Consider this for holiday ornaments, decorative boxes, or any project where subtle sparkle adds dimension without overwhelming painted details. The crystal-clear base means your underlying colors stay true, blues remain blue, reds stay vibrant, while the suspended glitter adds surface interest that shifts as viewing angles change.
