Hi,

I want to stencil a large format damask pattern on our bedroom walls (2 of them actually) and have the other 2 walls in the background color alone. I want the background to be a very light metallic silver. I will stencil the pattern in a matte very dark purple. Do you have any suggestions as to what to use for the metallic look? Brand recommendations or warnings?

I was at Sherwin Williams today and saw they have a faux finish "pearl" paint that is meant to be painted over a base color and can be tinted silver. The pearl/metallic one was $75 a gallon but there will be a sale over the weekend (starting tomorrow) for 40% off. I have seen mixed reviews on GW about SW paints. I do not know the price and quality difference between that one and ones elsewhere.

Please let me know what you think and any advice will be appreciated greatly ;)

Thanks!
