Some ideas you can use Titian

• Titian Khaki uses the same tone structure as Sandro Bottocelli which makes the two colour suit to set up soft earthy complimentary themes.
• Titian is a tan tone but when trying to recreate or upscale a older style furniture is very subtle.  If you want a complimentry darker tone then would recomment Paolo Caliari to offer a lovely contrast. Also very good in highlighting appliques or stencils if using a complimentary contrast.

• apply a coat of clear soft wax to leave a smooth satin finish
• wipe a coat of coat of Eco-Wax liquid carnauba for a harder finish with a slightly buff colour for aging
• apply a clear soft wax and once dry apply a dark soft wax for an antique look
• For a hardwearing finish such as a table top then we recommend Glaze & Medium for a satin clear finish
• For dark colours you could use liming or white wax to soften paint colour
• Leave Au natural as a matt finish
