It can be done but is difficult because PG is very thin. It won't hide the glitter particles within a layer of itself as epoxy does.

Nick why not try it on a scrap piece of blank. There are some glitters out there that are extremely small particles and that would be key, it may work. You are surly going to need to apply several coats over it. Good luck and let us know how you made out.

It may also be too hot for some glitters. Always test.

I am using holograpic glitter in LS Supreme. I have .008 size and I bought a five size kit. It only takes a very small amount and it looks awesome.I have done 3 layer samples with each top layer a smaller sized glitter. Gives a great 3D look.
