I was discussing this week with some specialist painters a technique I used to practice in the early 90's. We would have rooms painted with an oil based distemper and then take a small pot of heavily pigmented distemper and sponge it on the wall. It also worked with varnish on pine and a team of us did a ski chalet with that technique. The distemper factory burnt down and it's not quite the same with emulsion.
I look forward to it's return to fashion because it payed quite well !
