How can you paint water-based over an oil-based finish? Even sanded it's not really stable.

Your music is too loud

great idea...might need to paint wall first in a similar colour so that gaps don't look so obvious

Is the door knocker black? I would have chosen silver to match the hardware. But great job. Pretty color.

Nice job

Drill the holes and countersink before you sand and stain

Can I do this technique on a melamine paint? I just painted my coffee table turquoise, and it looks weird without distressing and needs something to create some depth. The table was not real wood, does that matter? Love your videos, just found you ❤

Do you have to put a top coat on both sides of a desk? Can one side be left unfinished?

wow gallon $ 134 ?! Add some more money and brand new door!

Excellent

Can you use the topcoat on painted eggshell water base finish paints

thank you for this informative video! great job. I understand that this glazing technique works well with the types of furniture that have frames, curves, engravings etc. where the glaze stays after wiping, but what if I need to glase a simple painted stool that doesn't have those? Its very basic stool, just legs and the top, and I wonder what stays and where when I cover it with the glaze and wipe afterwards. I painted it in nice yellow, but wanted to add some used antique look with dark edges and some dark patina around the joints. But the issue is that using your technique the glaze at the edges, where I do want it to stay, will most probaly get wiped off. What do you think I shall do to make it look like a want? And would the whole thing work if I use watered down dark acrylic paint over the main layer of paint, also acrylic? thank you!

Was there ever a reveal video? I’d love to see it 😅

Thank you love your video you help me with what i want to make

Was looking in a homewares store for a large wall clock $299.00 and the back was made out of a piece of cardboard and clock surround was made out of plastic. I'm really impressed with you diy wall clock.. it looks amazingly authentic.. one of a kind...yay. New diy wall clock coming right up. You have inspired me. Thankyou

Hi. Thanks for this video. I am stripping kitchen cabinet doors- I used the Blue Bear Paint & Urethane stripper. My kitchen cabinets have NO PAINT but have some sort of varnish and maybe a light stain though im not sure of the stain- the doors are solid maple wood. I unscrewed the doors and laid them flat on a table, applied a thick layer of the stripper, waited 3 hr 30 mins and scraped. I did not see much difference. So i cleaned off the side of the doors that i had done, left them to dry a bit, flipped them over and applied a thick layer to the other side. Im leaving them overnight and covered 6 doors with plastic drop cloth as i didnt have the clingy wrap with me. Ill know how this works tomorrow....

Can i paint my furniture white and put some silvery glitter

Thank you! Very nice!

I'm not sure why creators insist on playing music that is as loud as their voice.👎

Great video thank you…. But l noticed there were a few bits you missed

What I will NEVER understand is the lack of ability to focus a camera. Stop the action, focus the camera and then shoot. Autofocus DOES NOT WORK.

The finish isn't as beautiful as you ❤

A lot of extra work for milkpaint. Yes, do ALL that for all other paint. With milkpaint, a good cleaning and then simply add the bonding agent. I've successfully used this method for all my milkpaint jobs, including kitchen cabinets, unless it was raw wood, which doesn't require bonding agent

I have textured walls :(

I did promise my friends and myself not to watch videos that advertise products. Sorry darling, you might be very talented but CZcams has gone mad on advertisement. Neither my friends nor I are part of it.

You did an awesome job. Thanks for all the useful tips!

Better use clear silicone add to it or they will fall or weak to hanging thing on

Can you use white for your 3 rd color to lighten. So light sky blue, dark blue 1/2 water, White paint 1/2 water.

I think it makes sense to always start on the same side, but vary the lengths that you apply. That way, you only have to trim to fit on one side.

Never been able to get general finishes water poly to work with a brush on any large surface, not even coffee table size. Wont level, as well as brush strokes. Have to roll it or use a paint pad. Spray would be best of course.

What are the names of the colors. Is it chalk paint?

Does this work on custom jeans?

Just remember if you're using a water based poly you'll probably want to do more than three coats. If have to for my stair treads. It's a stairway to the basement so an oil based is not practical because of the smell. I don't want to lose brain cells, TYVM.

What do you use to seal the surfaces with before chalking?

Could you paint a floor shower tile? Would that paint be waterproof?

Beautiful, great job

Great video but the background music is so distracting and unnecessary

Sorry not impressed with water based glaze. Oil based looks better as does dark wax

Hello, I just found your channel. How is this chair today? ( 4 years later) I love it!

Can a second coat of the glaze be applied? I tried a second coat and it completely removed the first coat. Now i have to start over... prime again and reapply the base coat 😢

In this case, re-upholstering would have been faster...❤

no sound

Thanks! Just a little comment: water based dries faster than oil based, hence, IMHO, using a foam brush instead of bristles would be more appropriate since it leaves no bristle traces (traces which can flatten out with oil based poly, having the time to so so, but not with water based poly). If I did this very often, I would invest on a couple of high quality bristle brushes since they're the most polyvalent, but if it's just for one project or two with a _water_ based finish, using 2$ (max) foam brushes is a winner.

why do you start in the middle of the wall?

Hello Jenny. How do I attain this finish on steel?

You didn't happen to have measurements for those slats do you?

I want to distress my matte black cabinets. When I sand I get a white color underneath, how can I get the wood look ?

would you mind sharing why you sand when you are using chalk paint? I thought that was one of the reasons to use chalk paint.

What color is that? So beautiful grey

Did you sand the table before adding your first coat of paint? Great video.
