When we talk about the topic faux finishing we have multiple choices to decide and choose what is best. But the technique which we select should give the finishing a glazy look. So it is very important to know which glaze you are actually choosing a multi layer glaze or a single layer glaze. Once you have correctly chosen your glazing medium then the 70 percent of your work is almost over.
So which medium will you choose either a translucent or an opaque medium? If you choose a translucent medium you will have to cough out more money than the other but you can have a beautiful finish once this is done. It is known for its elegant looks and finish. When it comes to opaque medium, they are normally added along with the house paint. They can be easily mixed with the help of any local hardware store.
Before you take a chance just try the glazing effect in a small room, if you get the perfect glaze then proceed with the other rooms.
