Just scroll down to the marbling video and it will show you a preview to the DVD. If you are just starting to learn about marbling then this should help you as it deals with a fantasy marble and is focused on veining and color value to create depth by using one color and 3 values of the color. I recorded this on location and did a lot of voice over to explain the process. Hope this helps Hi Jerry,

A matter of fact I have used this line on overhead garage doors and they still look like the day I did them 5 or 6 years ago, I just added a coat of UV clear for added protection. I try to give as much information as I can on my DVD's and blog. Hi Herb

I want to build a pergola and possibly use 2 or 4 columns to look like stone. Can these faux finished columns be used outside?

LOL maybe because as you said I'm thinking with the "wrong" side of my brain.
