(latest NCVER data)Faux finishes let furniture makers give manufactured board, metal and plain timber the look of prized timber species or marble without the material cost. MSFFF3016 Apply graining and decorative finishes focuses on producing those effects to a consistent standard, and RTOs offering furniture finishing qualifications can use it with MSFFF3016 training materials that guide technique practice.
Learners develop skills in planning finishing tasks, checking and repairing surfaces, preparing materials, running trial applications, matching colour and samples, applying graining and decorative techniques, inspecting results and cleaning and maintaining equipment.
Skip developing faux finishing resources internally and use our MSFFF3016 RTO training materials as a structured starting point. Purchase RTO materials and give trainers MSFFF3016 training resources for both timber grain and marble techniques.
Inside the MSFFF3016 RTO training materials is a prepared foundation for applying graining and decorative finishes. Purchase RTO materials to reduce development time, with MSFFF3016 training materials ready for workshop contextualisation.
Check the latest unit requirements on training.gov.au before delivery. Your team should contextualise and validate these MSFFF3016 training materials for its learner cohort, delivery model and selected compliance environment. Use the supplied mapping as a starting point when reviewing your MSFFF3016 materials against the Standards for RTOs.
MSFFF3016 Apply graining and decorative finishes covers applying timber grain imitation and decorative faux finishes to solid timber, manufactured board and metal surfaces. It applies to furniture finishing workers who follow established procedures and use judgement to identify and resolve potential issues.
The unit addresses five core areas:
Learners imitate at least two timber species, a marble finish and one other finish type, drawing on techniques such as ragging, stippling, ageing and distressing.
Delivery typically uses stains, pigments, glazes, paints, rags, hessian, brushes, graining tools and spray equipment. Your team should check that a sufficient range of the listed materials and tools is available for assessment.
Yes. The editable files allow trainers to reference timber species and decorative styles common in their region or partner workshops.
Yes. Request a sample to review the layout and depth of the resources before you purchase RTO materials.
No. They are developed as compliant learning resources with training package requirements in mind, but they do not guarantee compliance or audit outcomes.
