I walled up a room with a low cost chip-particle board. Then 3 coated it with oil primer.
The first color coat was a off white Stone finish. The second coat was a shimmer coat. I then sponged it a two color combination of golden brown to light. Then the edges were shaded and I painted the trim a dark forest green/olive.
It turned out really cool!!! Who says painters don’t paint their own places!!! Especially rewarding because I’m mostly a straight painting contractor.
It looks really good at night with the right lighting!!
The real trick was the chip board for this finish!!
