AquaGlaze®
AquaGlaze® is a slow drying glazing medium used with higher quality 100% acrylic latex paint. Simply add 5% to 20% paint into AquaGlaze. Just visit your favorite paint store paint and use their better grade paint color charts when picking a color for glazing. Purchase the paint color desired and simply adds that paint color into the AquaGlaze® and you are ready to start your color glazing over a properly sealed surface.

Like other Faux Effects® glazes, an AquaGlaze® mixture works best over a SetCoat® base. This sealed in surface provides maximum workability and slower drying time of the color glazing mixture. 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.

AquaGlaze® should be applied in temperatures between 60ºF and 90ºF. Applying glazes at low or high temperatures reduces the ability of this product to dry properly and obtain a good film formation, thus reducing its durability.
