Sponging On

2005-04-14T10:44:00.000-07:00

Sponging On

Sponging on is the technique of applying different color paints to a uniform-color base coat. Sponging adds depth to a wall. The more colors sponged on over the base coat, the greater the depth. Glaze coats allow the base paint to show through and extend the drying time of the sponged-on color, giving you more time to work with the effect.

A satin or semigloss base coat is applied with a brush, pad, or roller. The glaze is applied over the base coat with a sea sponge.

Practice, practice, practice. The only way...more

There Is Always Something To Improve Or Innovate For Comfort

2005-03-20T11:13:00.000-08:00

There Is Always Something To Improve Or Innovate For Comfort

No products are perfect when they are invented or developed in the first place; therefore any product has room to be improved into a better one.

For example, examining paint related-products, I could not find really innovative or new products for improving paint jobs to make them easy and enjoyable. We are still using the same products and the same methods of doing paint jobs as we did a hundred years ago. In the past, whenever I did a paint job, I always found something bothering me or some inconvenience about painting and I have asked myself why better products do not exist for easy and quick paint jobs. About a year ago, I finally decided to research and develop new paint-related products that are simple to use, inexpensive and environmentally friendly.

1. Ergonomic Paint-Can Handle/Opener

Everybody knows that carrying a paint can by its wire handle is uncomfortable and causes hand and arm pain. Based on research among professional painters, I discovered there is a need for a comfort handle. The Ergonomic Paint-Can Handle/Opener is a new invention that ... more

You'll need:

- metal comb, or a window or silk-screen squeegee and a crafts knife to make your own comb... more

FREEHAND PAINTED TILES

2005-03-01T12:56:00.000-08:00
