Glazes are semi transparent thick bodied coatings which may be applied to various surfaces as a decorative effect.
Simple single applications are common, however multiple layers with different colors including the incorporation of metallic powders and applied over specifically patterned textured walls with very secretive and even proprietary tools and techniques can result in positively amazing decorative finishes.
See examples online or at the SanibelFaux.com gallery on Sanibel Island.
