Examples of ageing are shown below. All were ageing using Dirty Down ageing sprays. Click on an image to enlarge.
The plates after applying Black, Grey and Khaki ageing spray. The darker patches are created by applying several coats, (the shade darkens with each coat). It's best to apply several coats to build up different depths of shade and colour rather than to apply a single heavy coat. For a dull, matt finish apply a fine coat of dulling spray first.
The pot after applying Black, Mid Brown, Dark Brown and Ash Blonde ageing spray. The darker patches are created by applying several coats of ageing spray.
The basket after applying Black, Mid Brown, Dark Brown and Ash Blonde ageing spray. The darker patches are created by applying several coats of ageing spray.
