Our Glazes are excellent for faux finishes on furniture or walls.
With exceptional ease of application with a long open time, our glaze delivers the performance of a professional finish that everyone can achieve! Dries to a soft matte finish. For high traffic areas, we recommend a topcoat.

HOW TO USE IT?
Apply liberally with a brush of your choice and then gently wipe back with lint free cloth to achieve desired effect. If there are detailed crevices this is where the glaze will really show its glory! If too much force is used, it may reactivate the paint layer below as glaze has a high water content.
For areas where there will be lots of water contact like kitchen cabinets or table tops, allow the glaze to dry 24-48 hours before applying a top coat using our Tough Coat or Gel Stain.
TIP: If adding tint or paint to the clear glaze, test to ensure your desired pigmentation is achieved prior to application by doing a test patch.
DID YOU KNOW?

WHAT IT WILL LOOK LIKE
As with the Fusion Mineral Paint The glaze is also matte unless you add one of our Metallics for some shimmer!
CURE TIME
The glaze has an extended open time giving you plenty of time to work with it so dry and cure time is slightly longer than our paints. Dry time is typically 24-48 hrs and cured in 28 days
WHAT ELSE CAN IT BE USED FOR?
You can use our glazes for lots of faux finishes including faux wood grain, ragging, striated patterns and so much more.
The Glaze can also be used to give our paint a little longer open time and works well in our Metallics.
It can also be used to create the same effects as our waxes can but have the added bonus of being water based.
