    Do a gel stain. I dont know if it can work but im planning on gel stain on the stair railing. I dont care for the browns as much. But love the grain❤. White wash on rocks will so pop! And beautiful. Ive watched you guys for so long and love the creativity that i wouldnt have it in mind. Im hoping it pans out for you for such amount of years of new memories.

I was surprised that I liked the faux beams down but it looks more open. Can’t wait to see what is next. I don’t understand why you don’t have more subscribers. I think they will come.

      @@LindiandRuss Oh no! I hope you don't have to shut down your channel! It's hard to find a CZcams channel whose style so closely aligns with mine. I've noticed that a lot of the channels I find are having issues getting enough views lately. Hopefully you can find a way to change that. As for the fireplace, have you considered concrete stain? I think that might be able to help you tone down the color without losing the stone's character.

    The ceiling looks awesome, and it really brightens the room! Actually, now that the ceiling is nice and bright, the fireplace looks much better as a contrast and if you change the color of the walls to a brighter shade, perhaps the fireplace will look fine for a while.......but since you are stepping back from the fireplace project for now.......hmmmmm.......Hey Russ, how about that sauna for Lindi?? 😉😁😁

    • @LindiandRuss
      @LindiandRuss  Před 4 měsíci +1

    Could you try an Acid Wash over the stones? They look like years of soot have discoloured them. The acid might clear away some of the grime then do the grout lines.

      I completely disagree! Which sprayer did you buy or use? We have both used them in our houses, in the RV, on furniture, etc and we’ve always been very happy! I will say there was a bit of a learning curve to getting a really nice finish with some of the sprayers, but the one in this video is so easy to use and goes on so well. I literally can’t see how you’d have difficulty. Much cheaper than hiring it out!

I easily gave it about 10-15 try’s, followed the Wagner directions, watched their CZcams videos, talked to the guys at Loews and sure enough, they confirmed, some of their models suck.

      @@Lizwindsor hi Liz - you commented on our sponsored video yelling in CAPS “DO NOT DO IT!” If you are someone who has followed us for years, as you say, then you should know that we NEVER share products that we don’t stand behind. As I said above, sometimes products have a learning curve. When I said, I can’t see how you could have difficulty, I was referring to the Control Pro airless sprayer in this video, which you just admitted you didn’t use. It’s more expensive, but there is no learning curve and it’s super easy to use and use well. We’ve used a ton of these sprayers on and off camera - sponsored and not-sponsored and always been happy, even with the ones that took slightly longer to master. I’m sorry you feel that way. We don’t mean to come across as rude or condescending, but obviously felt the need to defend our actions and choices after being criticised. Hope you have a lovely day! ❤️
