SHEER BEAUTY GLAZE (clear mixing glaze)

Clear mixing glaze is a medium used with paint.  The purpose is to put a translucent color on top of another color to create different effects.

For example: If you want to give a piece an old antique look mix some black, brown or dark gray into the Sheer Beauty Glaze.

SEE THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW ON HOW TO MIX AND APPLY SHEER BEAUTY GLAZE

IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME USING GLAZE WE RECOMMEND MAKING A PRACTICE BOARD TO GET THE FEEL FOR THE PRODUCT FIRST

Recommended mixing instructions- 4 parts glaze to 1 part paint (you can adjust the ratio as you like by using more or less of one product to another, this gives you a starting point.)  This goes a long way, we recommend mixing a small batch first to see how far it goes.

There are a couple of ways to use this.

1. Apply over dry paint with a brush or rag.  Immediately using a dry or slightly damp rag, wipe the excess leaving a very sheer coat.  The glaze will soak into the paint so you want to work quickly.  A damp rag will remove more glaze making it more sheer.
2. Use Meltdown Sealer over your dry paint.  This will create a barrier coat between the paint and glaze allowing the glaze to sit on top of the paint making it easier to work.  Apply glaze with a brush or rag, immediately remove with a dry or slightly damp rag.  This will make it a bit easier to work the glaze.

YOU WILL NEED TO WAX OR SEAL YOUR PIECE AFTER IT IS DRY.  SHEER BEAUTY GLAZE IS NOT A SEALER.

If you are new at using glaze we recommend starting in small sections.
