What are different types of painting furniture finishes and procedures.?
There are many different types of furniture painting finishes. Here are some of the most popular: Crackle (used with crackle medium and requires a base coat, followed by a coat of crackle, and then a top coat… allowing time in between these coats) Faux Marbling (many different ways to do… one popular way is to use sponges to sponge on various colors and add “veins” with feathers or fan brushes) Distressed (paint on a layer of one color and then a layer of a contrasting color. Let dry between layers. Once the top layer is dry, use sandpaper to sand away the top layer in random spots to make it appear distressed). Sponging (sponge on paint in various shades or contrasts using a sea sponge. Move the sponge around, turning it and using different areas to create different depth and designs.
