Class description
225-F Metal Patina I By using paint to recreate faux metal patina, the decorative painter and plasterer has the utmost control. Unlike actual metal patina where the chemicals are dictating all the color and movement, you have the final say in the composition of the patina and can customize your finished result to match your clients pre-existing environment. This one-day class will teach you metallic paint composition, oxidization, and controlling sheen. You will conduct plenty of hands-on exercises to develop and refine metal patina skills and techniques.
