Texture / Faux Finish
Faux finishing is a painting technique used to create the illusion of
texture on a wall. Most faux finishing is applying one or more accent
colors over a base color. This technique usually requires several
applications over several days.
There are many advantages applying faux finishes over conventional wall
finishes like wallpaper, paint, paneling etc. It can be applied to
almost all surfaces, including dry wall, sheet rock, plastering, wood,
metal, fabric, glass, and ceramic. Faux Finish can hide the
imperfections of the any surface. Faux Finish can change how large or
small a room looks.
