Faux Masters Studio is a proud distributor and training center for Faux Effects International's Aqua Finishing Solutions, including AquaCreme and AquaGlaze products. AquaGlaze is a complex, slow drying glazing medium which is used in combination with ordinary latex paint for a variety of attractive decorative finishes including marble, wood graining, rag-rolling, sponging, bagging, pouncing and stippling. AquaCreme is a breakthrough clear creme glazing medium that can be worked all the way to an almost dry state, allowing for dry brushing and even the creation of positive and negative patterns with ease. Marbling, wood graining, and antiquing executed in AquaCreme take on a superior appearance when used in conjunction with AquaColors, acrylic artist's quality colors that offer maximum translucency in your decorative painting, stenciling, murals, floorcloths, and other forms of artwork. Mixed into AquaGlaze or AquaCreme, AquaColors produce quality faux and decorative finishes. Click here to order these products online.
