Texture Effects® is a multi-purpose, water base, acrylic, plaster-like medium that is ideal for raised relief, heavy distressed textures, stenciling and to correct wall imperfections. It is highly durable, water resistant and will adhere to most surfaces. Texture Effects® will not shrink or crack while drying and once cured, is hard. This versatile product can be tinted using Modern Masters' ShimmerStone® Color Concentrates, SkimStone® ColorPaks, or universal colorants and exhibits no color loss once dry. This eliminates the need for over painting. One of the most unique and time saving features of this product is its ability to self-seal. This gives the decorative painter the option of glazing or painting the textured surface directly, without the added time and expense of priming or varnishing.
