Stone Effect Spray Review

My review comes from a crafter’s perspective, and the product of choice was Maston Stone Effect Spray. You can buy this product from The Range. This was my first time using Maston Stone Effect Spray, and I wanted to give it a proper test on a real project.

This is a spray paint and, as the name suggests, if you apply it to an object, it makes that object look as though it is made from stone.

Using Stone Effect Spray

First, I checked what was needed in order to use Maston Stone Effect Spray. You will need a suitable mask because it is difficult to prevent overspray. As with any stone-effect spray, there is also a strong smell.

I decided I would try the spray on three different surfaces: wood, glass, and baked polymer clay.

I started with a glass coffee jar, which took a couple of light coats to achieve satisfactory coverage. The drying time was about three hours, so I then applied the spray to the other items while I waited and went about making a roof.

For the roof, I used baked polymer clay, which took three coats of Maston Stone Effect Spray to cover. The drying time was about the same on each material. I felt it had a great finish, looking very much like the sample on the lid. I then used it for the roof of the glass house.

Finally, I tried it on wood that had been previously coated with an acrylic-based paint. I found that once the second coat had dried, the underlying colours showed through. An extra coat of Maston Stone Effect Spray was all that was needed. I added a little glitter to the coasters; we all need some sparkle.

So, in summary, would I recommend this spray? Yes, I would. It was easy to apply, dried well on different surfaces, and I imagine it will be hard-wearing.
