Explanation:
Kommandot "crayon-distressed" förekommer ju i flera bildbehandlingsprogram (Avid, MS Picture It, MS Impressionist...). Om något av programmen lokaliserats till svenska förut, vore det första stället att kolla, så att termen blir konsistent. Microsoft brukar ju ha bra ordning på sina glossaries.

Om de inte översatts förut finns ju iofs många olika undertekniker inom antikbehandling, det beror på hur specifik du måste vara.

dictionary.com har en allmän definintion:
To mar or otherwise treat (an object or fabric, for example) to give the appearance of an antique or of heavy prior use: “There are the fakes - new rugs which have been intentionally distressed for an older look” (Hatfield MA Valley Advocate).

Länken nedan beskriver det som:
A "fresco finish" is a current trend in interior decorating, part of the whole "distressed" look. Basically, it involves faux painting techniques that make your walls look like 700 generations of goats have been rubbing up against them.
