Hello:
I am in the middle of remodeling my condo in Minneapolis.
I would like to acheive a sparkling silver effect on my wood trim around door, windows and baseboards. I have sanded the varnish off the trim and applied a grain filler. I have sanded that completely smooth. I need to find a spray paint that will give me a light sparkling silver finish -- as opposed to a dull, flat gray finish. Does anyone have any tips or resources for such a product. Or maybe even a different approach to obtain a silver-leafed effect?
Thanks for any reply.

- silver paint for trim
my wife does decorative painting. I've seen her achieve similar effects by painting the background colour first, then using a toothbrush dipped in the silver sparkle paint to speckle it with. You would have to mask off the surronding, hold the toothbrush with the bristles standing up and then use a popsicle stick tp make them spit paint at the featured trim. Practice on something in a carboard box first.
