AquaGlaze® color glazes are easily worked and manipulated to produce a variety of attractive decorative finishes including marble, wood graining, rag-rolling, sponging, bagging, pouncing and stippling.

AquaCreme™ is a full bodied, color glazing material with a long open time for easy workability. Simply add the desired amount of FauxCreme Color™ for color glazing. This glazing material is slow drying for easy workability and dries to a durable hard finish. Multi layers of color glazing can be added with no need to clear coat between color glazed layers.

AquaCreme™ dries to a hard, durable finish and can be used for both interior and exterior applications. With any Faux Effects® glazing mediums, it is always best to work over a SetCoat® base before color glazing.

SoSlow™ is a super extender additive that greatly slows the drying time of water-based glazing products. It allows finishers and decorative artists to maximize control of open time to create a broad range of effects over a desired period of time. The composition of SoSlow™ helps separate the color distribution resulting in a very smooth, slow drying color coat, especially useful for cabinet and furniture refinishing.

SoSlow™ is also very effective thinner and a retardant for color concentration products including Stain & Seal™. Up to 50% by volume can be added to Stain & Seal™ to make a liquid stain that is easy to manage on large surfaces. SoSlow™ can be added to metallic paints up to 10% by volume for ease of application on large surfaces in hot or warm conditions.
