Painting wood cabinets....a glaze look?

9134 Views 9 Replies 8 Participants Last post by  Joewho
I just got off the phone with someone who wants their oak kitchen cabinets painted. She wants them white and she asked about a "glaze" over the top? She said not sponging or ragging. Apparently, she saw some cabinets at Home Depot that looked darker in the crevaces and lighter on top.

Any ideas from this description?

I don't do any faux type finishes. I thought about going to formal training on it a few years back, but I thought it was only a trend. I do have people that still ask for it. Has anyone or does anyone know of a training institute that does this type of training? I would think it would trickle down into this type of painting that she is requesting.

I go to an art site called wetcanvas.com. there's a section on faux finishes.
if you post a question on there somebody will probably tell you how.
