Step One:
Refer to step one of Metal
Techniques. Remember, remove
tape if you are not completing
your project the same day.
Step
Two:
Reapply masking tape. Crumple
up a wad of clean cotton cheesecloth
and dip into Pewter Glaze.
Apply the glaze, dabbing at
the surface in the random
diagonal pattern that looks
most natural. Pewter Glaze
will stay workable only about
5 minutes so proceed quickly.
Avoid drafts from fans
or open windows that could
cause premature drying.
Step
Three:
Sponge on the next color using
a damp natural sea sponge.
Be sure to load the sponge
evenly and use a quick, light
pouncing motion. Add more
color to the areas around
the Pewter Glaze, creating
layers to look like a naturally
aged finish. Switch to a smaller
sponge when working in the
corners or tight spaces. Carefully
remove tape and allow to dry
overnight.
