    Painting with glitter
    I am wanting to paint my room a grey/purple color but I want to put a top coat of glitter on top. How would I do this and make it look nice and even and not peel or rub off?

    Top coat the glitter with a semi-gloss polyurethane. You could try mixing some glitter right in the poly to see if you can keep it stirred up enough to apply with a roller otherwise you'd have to apply the glitter to wet paint.
