A process for applying a faux finish includes the steps of applying a textured paint to a surface as a base coat, the textured paint having approximately 250 grams to approximately 500 grams of pumice per liquid gallon of paint, allowing the applied textured paint to dry on the surface, randomly applying to the dried textured paint a wet slurry composition, partially drying the applied wet composition, and dry brushing the partially dried composition about the dried textured paint to create a faux effect on the surface. The wet slurry composition comprises concentrations of approximately 40% to approximately 70% by volume of water, approximately 0.2% to approximately 0.5% by volume of methylcellulose, approximately 15% to approximately 25% by volume of acrylic resin, and approximately 15% to approximately 25% by volume of mica particles having a mesh size of between approximately 250 mesh and approximately 400 mesh.
