Prepare bisque by dusting off, using large mop brush, sponge piece with water to remove excess dust.

Dilute Gare CWS with water to a very watery consistency. Apply with large mop or fan brush; covering piece entirely. Wipe off excess; leaving color in crevices. Place on tile at least 3 different pearl stains starting from light to darker shades; place on tile in clockwise position.

Dip either round brush in lightest shade; place on piece a small section at a time, in a circular motion; next darker color placed underneath, blending; continue on until all pearls are on. DO NOT clean brush between colors. Start first coloe under last pearl stain, blending, making sure no harsh lines. Apply Metallics, glitters for details.
