FAUX
PLASTER
Is it real plaster or
not? Faux plastering is a technique that is ideal for walls that
suffer from many imperfections. This pure painting technique can make
any wall look old, and even crumbly. Overall, the effect lightens a
room, and adds a touch of elegance. Stenciling
and insets add attractive accents to faux
plaster walls. The aged plaster effect is reached via successive layer
of paints, applied in progressively thinner dilutions. Unlike color
washing, the paints are dribbled, not brushed. Faux plaster walls look
striking with chair rail molding that has been aged, or with baseboards
finished like Florentine
Stone.
You pick the hue. Urban
Revivals will present you with assorted color palettes, so that you make
pick a palette ranging from light grey, to antique white, light taupe,
or pale golden colors For more vivid hues and coarse finishes, such as
Venetian plaster, please visit our Aged
Plaster page.
 Faux Aging
is often accomplished with two color distressing or with brush-based
techniques which lift off underlying color.
