Let dry thoroughly. Make the glaze and apply it to the dried base coat. Using the tape mark 1-inch-wide sections. Apply a tinted glaze with a China bristle brush. Drag a triangular comb across surface at a 45-degree angle. Repeat until surface is covered. Let dry completely. Eliminate the tape and the pattern will be revealed.
