    I bought a silver glitter from (I think) Dorotape, which is really glittery, then got some silver cast from Europoint, and for the difference in amount of ‘sparkle’ vs cost, I’d go for the Europoint one every time.

    The silver was just silver, not a special request for glitter effect.

    This type of sign was VERY popular here in Pittsburgh in the 1970s,
    but the shop who did them closed up years ago.
    I always loved how these things looked,
    didn’t know that they were still being made!
    Hope you find something Rich.
    Love…..Jill

    Richard, I have a sample of these but cant remember where they came from, there is a silver disc amongst the samples I have. Will have a look over the weekend for the supplier for you. Have never used them for a job as I seem to remember them being quite expensive, could be wrong though it was quite a while ago.
