I tried to get my Veneziano to have a shine to it. Do you think I got one?
And ofcourse there is no wax on Veneziano. How many plasters can you get a glass look with no wax and topcoat? And also use inside or out, even in a shower stall? And in 1275 colors.
Only 1,
Am I bragging? You bet.

Yeh whatever Doyle,

I think you are burnishing a mirror.

Your not fulling anyone.

A mirror finish yes, but it is a wall. Soon as we get back from Italy I will post pictures on the gallery of this job. They should have the marble installed by then. The Mayor of Atlanta is throwing a big party there the begining of Oct.

We finished the job Sunday night. When we get back from Italy we will post pictures. Wanted to wait untill they got the marble in on the floor before we took the pictures. This job will be in some magazines, will post which ones soon.

I confess I put an extra coat, so it has 3.

I like that glass look Doyle, has anyone elese done
3 coats.
I would like to get that on a ceiling I am doing.

My goal is not always to get the most burnished Venziano
as possible but to continue to develope my hand and
understand the primer application with the effect.
The ceiling I just finished is at eye level at the top
of the foyer stairs. So the level of sheen and smoothness
of the plaster will be seen and for that reason I strived
for a mirror finish. I would not stress out over the sheen
its the layering and intrest that is just as exciting.

You can touch up the shine on a Veneziano, but I wouldn't press my luck with a Calcenova or a Mantovano, or any of the others for that fact. I have learned many lessons and the true limes don't wait for anyone.
