Faux Finishing FAQ
What kind of paints do you use?
I don't often use paint. FauxEver Yours uses professional faux finishing glazes more often than paint.
What is glaze?
When you wrap a gift, what do you use? Usually wrapping paper, right? Why? Because the paper is opaque, so it hides what is inside. You've probably seen, if not used yourself, colored cellophane too. Cellophane causes the item inside to take on whatever color the cellophane is, but you can still see through it. Paint is opaque like paper, faux finishing glazes are translucent like cellophane. Colors are added in the form of universal tints, but they remain translucent. Glazes look best when used in multiple layers, although many projects can be done with a single layer of a single color.
