comb Explanation: I'm guessing really, but "comb" would certainly fit the context. I wouldn't have called a combed effect "rallado", but see below: Masia - [ Translate this page ] ... personalizar las distintas habitaciones. Las puertas y armarios se pintaron con un efecto rallado obtenido con un peine.

Arquil Explanation: I couldn´t find the tarnslation into Spanish, but it refers to a kind/mark of paint, not to the way to apply it. All references to this word in Spanish are proper nouns (places in Spain)I guess the name comes from one of these places. My advice would be to leave it as it is using capital letter. In the following link you will find it as a proper noun (reering to paints) See: http://www.cetreria.com/foro2/viewtopic.php?t=2258 I hope it helps -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs 58 mins (2004-08-31 02:43:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- sory it´s; refering to paints. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs 59 mins (2004-08-31 02:44:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- oops sorry I´m tired of typing |
