Our Process of Faux Painting

1. Consultation and Design

First things first, we initiate a detailed discussion with the client to understand their preferences, style, and desired outcome.

2. Surface Preparation

After consultation and inspection, we prepare the surfaces to be faux-painted, ensuring they are clean, smooth, and properly primed. We also address any imperfections or irregularities on the surfaces that might affect the final faux painting result.

3. Base Coat Application

After surface preparation, we apply a base coat of paint in the desired color, serving as the faux finish’s foundation. 

4. Faux Painting Technique Application

Once the base coat is applied, we implement the chosen faux painting technique (e.g., glazing, sponging, ragging, etc.) to create the desired effect. 

5. Layering and Detailing

It is important to layer different colors and shades to build depth and complexity in the faux finish. This is an essential step to replicate the desired natural material. 

6. Color Adjustment and Refinement

After layering and detailing, our experts adjust the colors and tones to achieve the desired look, making refinements to create a cohesive and realistic finish.

7. Sealing and Protecting

Once the faux painting is done, we apply a clear sealant or protective topcoat to enhance durability, longevity, and resistance to wear and tear. It provides a lasting and beautifully finished faux surface.

8. Quality Check and Client Approval

We conduct a thorough quality check to ensure the faux finish meets the design specifications and quality standards. We seek client approval and feedback to ensure complete satisfaction with the finished faux painting.

9. Final Touches and Clean-Up
