A "faux product" oriented class

Instructor Dave Larson

"We're covering the basic principals
of
faux finish products & how to
integrate them in faux finishes,
not
just selling you on one brand name"
|
"Faux finish
products & glazes" have become a major trend in the faux industry.
Developed only 15 years ago, acrylic or latex based glazes are now available
over the counter, on the internet, and some are offered only through "proprietary"
faux finish classes (you have to pay for and take the class to learn
and buy the product). Regardless of the brand or name (Behr, Sherwin-Williams,
Ralph Lauren, etc), they all have one thing in common: an acrylic or latex
material with extenders added to stay "wetter" or "open" longer.
In this faux
finish class you will learn the fundamentals of working with any "faux
finish glazing product", be it over the shelf or proprietary products,
all
major faux brand names will be discussed. Beyond learning the fundamentals
of mixing, application, and manipulation of faux finish glazes,
you
will learn all the faux finish techniques shown at right. These are
some of the most
commonly requested and basic as well as advanced
faux
finish and glazing techniques in the industry.
Included
is our "Surface Prep" instruction so you know if, when and how to basecoat
properly for faux finishes with the correct paint and sheen, as well
as how to prepare any surface for painting.
