They Look Real But They Are Faux Imitation Panels

If there are ground-breaking products that have been revolutionizing the construction, remodeling, DIY and decorating fields, these are undoubtedly the new faux stone panels.

The Faux Version Of Old Types Of Stone

With the faux version of these stones that come in single panels, the results can be quite amazing. By using polyurethane and specifically designed acrylic paints you can start to see a product that strongly competes with real stone.

3-      Create a horizontal line (preferably with a chalk liner) to use as a guide.

4-      Cut the first faux stone panel on the left side to create a flat area.

5-      Apply some adhesive in the back and where the various panels will interlock
