| Surface
Smooth surfaces indoors, woodchip wallpaper, slightly structured
wallpaper or wooden surfaces. (The surfaces shouldn’t
absorb too much of the paint) This technique requires constant
pressure and evenly drawn lines.
What you need
Paint:
Emulsion paint for the walls, acrylic gloss for wooden surfaces.
For the basis-colour tone:
Use the mako wall roller or mako glaze roller.
For the dragging design:
Use the mako special-effects brush or mako flogger brush.
How to do it the right way
This technique requires a very even hand and careful work,
so we recommend that you practise first on a piece of paper
or cardboard before you beginn.
| 1. |
Apply the paint in small even rows. Treat
the painted rows with the mako special-effects brush before
the paint has dried. |
| |
|
| 2. |
Dip the effect-brush slightly into the
paint and draw it along the whole pretreated row without
stopping from top to bottom. If you are working with wood,
pull the mako special-effects brush in the direction that
the natural graining of the wood goes. |
| |
|
| 3. |
The brush has to be wiped off with a soft
cloth after each row.
We advise you to use either acrylic glaze or varnish to
protect your wooden surfaces. But do not forget to let
the painted surface dry for at least 24 h before starting.
