How can I make a mirror with plexiglass and spray paint?
I've tried painting plexiglass with chrome paint to get a mirror effect but can't get it to reflect well and provide the "mirror" effect. I don't expect it to be exaclty like a glass mirror but would like to get it somewhat close. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Make sure to clean the front and back and dry with a lint free rag!
Coat the back of the plexiglass with spray cooking oil.
I know this sounds wierd, but hang in there!
Apply sheets of foil to the side that was just covered with oil.
Using a large paint brush, smooth the foil over glass removing any bubbles and creating a srface that would make up you mirror.
Place the foil coated glass in a frame or any type holder where the foil can be held in place.
Good luck!
