No it hasn’t. We do have the bottom nailed at each end since we used trim to cover that area.

This is Sherwin Williams Outerspace

We did straight cuts and preferred the way they looked to the 45 degree angle

For ours we have it not flush with the mirror. We did this because we wanted the mirror frame to sit on top of the backsplash, but we also have it not flush at the top and sides as well.

@@moderngreyfarmhouse Okay. This is helpful. My client fears the wood at the bottom will get well since itje mirror sits very close to the sink. She was of the idea we do 3 sides and skip the bottom. Note sure how that would look. Thank you so much.

That area we painted black inside and we store our Roku and sound bar in there. In my channel I have how we built the surround and you can see how we created that area. The heat projects forward, we have not had any issues, although we do not use the heat often.

@@moderngreyfarmhouse thats awesome, very helpful thank you for replying, will check out your other video!

No glue. It’s perfectly fine.

We were able to just use the screws that came with our light fixture. Unfortunately I don’t recall the size.

Yes. It was coated in automotive primer, then spray paint and then clear enamel.

@@moderngreyfarmhouse thanks, I’ve just sprayed mine with rustoleum Matt black and rustoleum primer but did not buy any enamel. I wish I did now

I had a client today ask me if I could do this to their bathroom mirror and my first thought was “I’m gonna have to rabbet the inside so it sits against the mirror AND the wall”. I’ve been looking on YT and all these people literally just glue a piece of wood onto their mirror and call it a day. You are the first comment I have found that makes sense.

It looks fine… 🙄

@@jordangarcia3995it’s a DIY project we don’t have all the tools. I’m also going to glue mine.

Thank you

Thanks!

Ive used PVC and painted it next to wood on the fireplace build and it looked fine. You would just need to make sure the adhesive can be used on PVC.

The mirror was already in the house when we moved in

Thank you

I was able to find a few on Amazon. I willing them below. I also has success finding it at Autozone where I live locally. www.amazon.com/Rust-Oleum-2081830-Stops-12-Ounce-Primer/dp/B000V69Q58/ref=sr_1_7?crid=8P7F3N7P11UW&keywords=automotive+primer&qid=1691081432&sprefix=automotive+primer%2Caps%2C184&sr=8-7 www.amazon.com/Dupli-Color-General-Purpose-Self-Etching-Towelette/dp/B01MSW9M6Z/ref=sr_1_79?crid=8P7F3N7P11UW&keywords=automotive+primer&qid=1691081481&sprefix=automotive+primer%2Caps%2C184&sr=8-79

So sorry that happened to you. Our mirror was held in place with liquid nails and also plastic clips.

No it was only applied to the back of the wood

I think it would hold up to water contact but may have issues with hard scrubbing while cleaning.

@@moderngreyfarmhouse Thanks for your reply. I may have to bite the bullet and just replace it, but it's surrounded by tile, so it won't be that easy. Don't want to break the tile to get it out. I'll have to put my thinking cap on for that job and see what others recommend. 🤔

@@audiophileman7047 you could try it and see how it goes. If it stars to peel off then it may not be hard to remove completely. My best advice for its staying power is to be sure use the automobile primer then paint then sealer.

@@moderngreyfarmhouse Thanks for the further information. 👍👍👍

They are interlocking which allows the bottom to not require any nail only the grooves need to be nailed in. For this particular build we also added baseboard so we could add nails to the very bottom piece. We also trimmed out the sides so we could add nails under those trim pieces also.
