FAQ's

Smarter Surfaces Silver Screen Paint is meticulously engineered to let sound waves pass through without disrupting their natural flow. This is essentially because of its impressive Sound Absorption Coefficient (SAC). In simple terms, SAC measures how much sound a material absorbs when sound waves travel through it.

We would like to mention here that during testing, we measured this property on a 12mm gypsum board, a standard building material. Interestingly, whether the board is painted or not, the SAC values remained almost identical:Unpainted Board α = 0.04-0.07 Painted Board α = 0.04-0.07

This consistency signifies that Silver Screen Paint is acoustically transparent, thus ensuring that sound passes through with little to no disruption, regardless of the frequency. So, whether you are creating a cinematic experience or recording sound, you can trust that the sound quality will stay intact.

Yes, absolutely. Smarter Surfaces Silver Screen Paint is designed to handle both 2D and 3D projections effortlessly. When using a 3D projector, it ensures crystal-clear visuals, thus preserving both depth and contrast for delivering an immersive viewing experience. So just pair it with 3D glasses, and you are all set for a cinematic masterpiece right on your wall.
The gain value of the Silver Screen Paint is the highest in range by far, designed specifically for 3D projection, because of its unique properties achieved by the silver technology. This means a very high level of light reflectivity without interfering with the polarity of the reflected light delivering an exceptional 3D experience.
Well, when it comes to 3D projectors, the magic lies in projecting two slightly different images that overlap, thus creating the 3D effect. These images are filtered through specialised optics, polarising the light in distinct ways for each projection. To experience this immersive effect, 3D glasses play a very crucial role, blocking one image for each eye that is left and right, thus allowing each eye to see a different perspective.Now, here's where it actually gets technical : if the projection screen alters the polarity of the light, it could distort the effect and ruin the 3D experience. This is why Silver Screen Paint is truly a game-changer. It’s designed to be polarity-preserving, therefore meaning that the light is reflected back exactly as it was intended, without any kind of interference. With this paint, you are guaranteed the perfect 3D effect, thus keeping your images immersive, sharp and true to the original projection.
Silver Screen Paint is designed for versatility, thus adhering effortlessly to surfaces such as wallboards, plaster, wood, metal, and other similar composite surfaces. It even works on stretched fabrics under tension and is perfect for indoor use as it magically transforms ordinary surfaces into high-performance projection screens. However, it is for interior use only.
We recommend applying Silver Projection Screen Paint onto a previously primed or painted surface. Prime bare, untreated surfaces with two coats of White Primer.
Wear a respirator face mask as Silver Screen Paint is a spray applied paint. Use the gloves supplied in the kit while applying the paint. Additionally, safety glasses should be worn. As with any painting process, ensure the room is ventilated.
The recommended lighting setup for Silver Screen Paint for Projector is low or medium ambient lighting.
Silver Screen Paints are suitable for use with 3D projectors ( HD, 4K, and 8K Projector) above 3000 lumens.
During the spraying process ensure the area is clear of people as the spraying process like all paint that is spray applied will create a spray mist which with disappear after a few minutes with ventilation after the spraying is completed and the area ventilated it is completely safe. There is a very low odor during the drying process and the VOC level is low.

Use warm water to clean the paint.
Over time dust can gather on your silver screen paint - use a damp cloth ( water ) with no detergent and dap the surface clean and allow it to air dry.
3D Silver Screen Paint is 100% free of Isocyanates. At Smarter Surfaces we do not use isocyanates in Silver Paint or any products which is a hazardous product and should only be used by trained professionals using rigorous safety procedures.

Yes, Silver Projector Screen Paint is completely safe to use. This Paint is low VOC, solvent free, PFOA & PFOS free and isocyanates free. It meets the highest environmental standards and has been independently certified for Fire performance and VOC Use the gloves supplied in the kit while applying Silver Screen Paint for Projector. As with any paint product we recommend wearing gloves during application.

Silver Screen Paint is not flammable, making it suitable for use in schools and offices.

Silver screen paint is designed to enhance light reflectively and image resolution, especially in rooms with ambient light. It is more reflective than white paint, which can help to improve image quality. White projector screen paint, on the other hand, is more suitable for dark rooms or environments with minimal ambient light.



A silver screen is better suited for environments with low to medium ambient light, as it can help to reject that light and improve image quality. A white screen, on the other hand, is better suited for bright rooms or environments with high ambient light.

The flashpoint of the Silver Screen Paint is above 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

The primary use cases for Silver Screen Paint is for 3D projection including home theatres and commercial theatres.

Yes, the Silver Screen Paint is designed for commercial applications, including movie theatres, conference rooms, and museums.

Yes, Silver Screen Paint can be more cost-effective than a traditional screen, especially for large or custom screen sizes.

Typically the process of application is done over two days. Day one is preparation and priming. Day two is spray application of the Silver Screen Paint, however application in one day is possible provided the first coat is touch dry before the application of the second coat.

3D Silver Screen Paint - Spray Application

How To Apply Silver Screen Paint?

Step 1 - Before painting, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of loose material. Measure your area and outline it neatly with masking tape. For bare or untreated surfaces, apply two coats of White Primer for a solid base. Fill any defects with filler, sand smooth, and lightly sand again after the second coat of primer.

Step 2 - Apply the Silver Screen Paint. This product must be spray applied in two coats (a base coat, then a top coat). Before applying, make sure the paint is at room temperature.

  • First Coat
  • Stir the paint well. Spray the first coat with a spray fan size of 15–20 cm and a minimum wet film thickness of 80 microns. Use 2000 PSI or higher spray pressure. Keep the spray gun 30 cm from the surface during spraying. Allow the first coat to fully dry (approx. 4 hours at 20°C). If colder, allow additional time before overcoating.

  • Finish Coat
  • Spray the finish coat with a minimum wet film thickness of 80 microns. Ensure a good overlap of each spray pass at 50% to achieve full coverage.

Important Tips

Do not thin the paint with water. Always wear a respirator mask when spraying, along with standard PPE. Use an airless sprayer with a recommended spray tip size of 1.6–2.0 mm Gravity Fed Pot Gun. Each pack includes 20% extra coverage for overspray and spray line loss. For small applications (screens under 4.5 m²), use a Gravity Fed Pot Gun to minimise waste, as airless spraying equipment requires more product to fill the pump and gun line. For Gravity Fed Pot Guns, use a 1.6 mm spray tip with the pressure set to 60 PSI.

After 24 hours, the surface will be ready for use. A sample pack is also available if you’d like to test performance first.
