FAQ’s-DECORATIVE AND FAUX FINISHES

How do go about creating a faux finish?

Of course it depends on the desired final look, but typically a faux finish starts with a base coat of a non-flat sheen paint that won’t quickly absorb the decorative glaze applied on top of it, so that the glaze remains workable to finesse the look of the finish. The decorative glaze is generally made by mixing paint with a clear glaze which extends the dry time of the mixture, again for workability or open time. The final faux finish is then determined by various application techniques and combinations of colors to achieve the vision of the designer. We always recommend mock-ups and samples of faux finish painting before doing the work.
