Paint Products:

• Soft Gel (Semi-Gloss)
• Iridescent Bright Gold (Fine)
• Raw Umber Glaze

Brushes and Tools:

• Palette knife/spackle blade or squeegee
• Color Wash brush
• Rag

Painting Instructions:

Step 1. Mix Soft Gel (Semi-Gloss) w/Iridescent Bright Gold at a
10:1 ratio

Step 2. Apply gel mixture to surface using a squeegee or palette knife/spackle blade. Using more gel will create a smoother surface. Do not press hard - this will create marks in the surface. Allow to dry.

Step 3 . Brush on Raw Umber Glaze over 100% of the area. Gently wipe off excess glaze in the direction that the gel was applied.
Allow to dry.

Clean Up: Wash hands and tools in soap and water. Keep tools wet while working to prevent permanent adhesion of the acrylic materials.
