Thanks for the Excellent video. This is the best wood faux technique I found on youtube. I plan to do this to my front door. I hope mine comes out as good as your. 😊

I missed that disclaimer about primed white door. The doors I bought are white but not finished. I bought all the stuff I needed and started the project. Everything was going well until It was time to do the second shade of dark. The door unprimed and porous made the Secord coat hard to put and it left marks and lines of lighter shades. It does not look too bad but it is noticeable. I am not sure if it was because the doors were not primed but that is the only difference. I bought the same stuff you recommended. Same color and even manufacturer.

From what I seen @ the 2:54 mark it said painted or primed. The smoother the better. Where do you think it went wrong for you?

Omg beautiful

Which color gel stain was that?

I plan to use your technique on my front door. I need to remove the door and the hardware then after the first step I still need to allow drying time before I do proceed to the second coat. It sounds like the entire process could easily take 2 days. Any ideas on how I can cover up the front door entry while I remove the door for two days to work on it?

The stain is not drying after first layer

Thanks for the video. Question, are the doors painted white or are they primed white? My wife and I are planning on following your steps on a white painted door but want to make sure before we start.

I bought some used kitchen cabinets that are an off white color. I’m tempted to try this on cabinets. Do u think I should strip the paint off them first?

No, you do not need to .
