Of all the paint treatments that can be used, rag painting techniques are one of the most subtle and elegant and is the most useful in creating a number of different decorating looks for walls. Ragging creates a broken color technique, using thinned down paint or glaze and brushing it over a base coat, then using paper towels, rags or plastic trash bags while the paint is still damp, you rag some of it off to create a mottled or textured effect on the walls.
