Konstrukt™ Lunar Series™: Kashmir™
From afar, the moon gleams exquisitely at sundown. It envelopes the night with mysterious aura, silently luring a curious spectator in. Its lulling presence pacifies the hardness of the day. Utterly hypnotizing, one experiences a sense of calm and completeness. Dazed eyes can't simply look away from it. Further zoom into its surface, it boasts varying textures - tiny and large craters, dark stretches, and rough impacts. Bombarded with asteroids and meteorites colliding with the lunar surface, it comes out beautifully undone. The moon is perfectly imperfect.
The Konstrukt™ Lunar Series™ is inspired by the aesthetically fascinating features of the moon. Each faux finish is striking but not overwhelming to the eye. The minimalist appeal and sleek ambiance add a flair of sophistication to any living space. Its simplicity and versatility render it as a perfect backdrop to highlight centerpieces. It is subtle but impactful - luxurious without being indulgent.

STEP 05:
After letting the finish cure for at least a week, apply a coat of BOYSEN®® Acrytex™ Sealer B‑1708 to protect the Kashmir™ finish. Let the sealer dry for at least 2 hours before applying 2 coats of BOYSEN®® Acrytex™ Clear Coat B‑1700 (with 2 hours dry time in between coats.) These products are best applied by using a spray to avoid lap marks. If unavailable, make sure to swipe off excess products from the roller onto the paint tray. Apply the product thinly on the surface to prevent roller marks.
