You are a master! So many great techniques! Thanks for all your great videos illustrating your methods! I’m trying my best to replicate this one at a larger scale on canvas. How do you decide how much unwanted salt to remove? If it’s densely covering a certain section, thus not letting any paint in to that area?

[@JeffReiten]

Thanks @thomasbanks4792!!!..You are more than Welcome! glad you are Enjoying them!..in the end i want most of the salt removes-or as much as I can get off- Basically first layer of salt acts as mask to bare wood ..then I just layer up paint and salt - and paint and salt..each layer of salt will mask the color, colors below it..then the fun part of scraping the salt and the paint that is stuck to the salt/mask off to reveal a cool effect!..hope this helps if you have any other questions just let me know..Thanks again for the kind compliments!!....Jeff

…and what about when you add water at the 9:30 mark? That’s to dissolve some of the salt that has been covered up to this point to add to the effect?

[@JeffReiten]

Hey @thomasbanks4792! ..Yep I use the water to dissolve any remaining salt, pick up loose paint and just kind of combine everything remaining together.

Great Job Jeff!!! What scale is this??? Just wondering if this technique would be useful on Wall board on board siding?

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Robert Thank You! This is 1:35th scale This Technique should work on almost any surface and could be scaled up or down
