As Bright White as Christmas Snow

As Bright White as Christmas Snow 
‘Tis the season for all things sparkling, twinkling, and gleaming as bright as the North Star. And that perfectly describes this week’s featured faux finish. Gone is the dark wood tone with deep grin texture and aged brass handle finish. This furniture set is now gleaming white in bright white lacquer and boasts an ultra- smooth sleek texture and shiny bright brass handles.


The old finish is sanded and primed. Wood fill and epoxy paint fill gives to a sleek feel. Even epoxy white paint is not as bright as white lacquer so another layer of primer is needed before adding the lacquer. Lacquer is thin and dries quickly. Buffing between layers creates the much- craved modern mirror finish. The new look is as fresh as newly fallen snow.
