Heirloom Traditions ALL IN ONE paint- THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE USING

[@dreasmom2789]

You just have to admire someone that can paint furniture on a carpet without plastic beneath it.

She gives zero f*s about life 😂😂😂 I figured she had a clear mat under but, nope. Just some envelopes for the legs lol

[@judyfraioli9179]

I love this paint. I find it goes farther than expected and I would watch their instruction videos first

[@Jordan-pf9ws]

So glad I watched this before starting

[@tannimo5851]

Thank you my fear is over I can start painting my dresser. The finishing is beautiful God bless

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

Thank you!

[@AmandaFriedmanMascio]

Excellent tutorial. Thanks!

[@BecAnn79]

Ty! Enjoyed watching the transformation

[@shellwash3499]

I love heirloom traditions paint. It I definitely what they say it is. Just clean the surface first.

[@judyhoover4538]

Or, you could simplify it all and use their brush and the foam roller and there are only 2 steps with amazing, long lasting results! There are so many videos where they simplify it all.

[@christinalively8292]

Exactly! HTP has all of the tooks you need.

How do you avoid the bubbles that pop up when you use the roller? I'm stuck.

Hi this was interesting to watch. I just bought everything from Heirloom Traditions and I’m going to paint my bathroom vanity this weekend. I’ve watched many of the tutorials from the HT company and it seems like maybe you could’ve used easier, more effective techniques and had much less work. The latest video tutorial I watched from owner: 1. she used the degreaser (I think if you’re testing a product good to use only the recommended products) 2. Then wiped on first coat kind of sloppy with the sponge, no stippling yet and using the HT brush only where sponge can’t reach (I don’t think your brush did you any favors. Not sure but it looked more like a stain brush?). 3. 10 minutes later, it was dry and she puts on 2nd coat, again with sponge. 4. Then she uses the wet with paint sponge to stipple out any marks (I think you were pulling off paint because your sponge was dry and hers is filled with paint). 5. Everyone who uses this paint is blown away by how easy it is to use and how amazingly scratch proof the finish.

[@KatieDeGo]

What kind of degreaser

[@joanneconrad3987]

I have painted furniture and viewed many tutorials. Do you clean the furniture prior to painting? Why wouldn't you remove the drawers first? I noticed your beautiful rug that is not totally covered while painting. Why wouldn't you place a large piece of plastic on the floor, then cover with cardboard? I also wear "painting gear". I plan to paint two nightstands, almost exactly like the one you're painting. Your tutorial is VERY comprehensive and easy to view

[@charlenecastaldo3602]

Thank you! So beautiful. Thanks for sharing your experience. How much paint did you use? I want to order their sample size to paint my front door like HT says in their ads it will do, but I certainly do not want to run out.

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

I used 1 8 OZ can to cover two coats on one side table.

[@jcorbett4217]

Thank you. I totally messed up my first try.

[@ambergerhelper7852]

What did you do wrong, and what happened?

[@rustyfan89]

You are right, all these products that say you don’t have to sand or use primer, I still sand and use a primer, painting is one of those things that there just doesn’t seem to be any shortcuts or easier ways to do it that get the job done better than the tried and true ways experience is the best way to speed things up a bit and it gets easier the more you do it . The best shortcut is a good HVLP or airless sprayer in which, with either of those surface prep is key, the better you prepare the surface the better spraying results you get

[@Jade_902]

Hi why didn’t you show the prep before you painted? I wonder how this all in one paint compares to my beloved ReThunk Junk paint? I’ll have to order a sample and compare.

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

I've never used ReThunk Junk so let me know!

[@nancyhayes4179]

I want to do my bathroom cabinets. They are old and stained oak. How do I prepare to paint? Do I just use the primer in my kit and how much do I use?

[@PibbleMom297]

This looks great and a small amount of paint seems to go a long way, but how do you keep any remaining paint in your tray from drying out while you wait for the first coat to dry?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

Honestly I only try to pour what I need for one application at a time but if I decide to try to save some I've wrapped a painter's tray with saran wrap before. It works ok!

[@PibbleMom297]

@@RepurposeandUpcycle Thank you!

[@SandraAnnEvans]

I just ordered this paint mysrlf. I have done a ton of wall painting in my house (4400 sq. ft.) I use a new white compactor bag (purchased from Costco for our trash compactor) and because they are super thick they keep my paint for weeks wet including tray with paint and roller. Of course, this paint is much thicker . . . So, I don’t know how long it would remain the proper consistency? You can try using a new white kitchen garbage bag (which are much thinner than the compactor bags; but still may work? . . . Place your tray, paint roller, brush (in ziploc bag), in the kitchen garbage bag and it should be okay for bit. I hope this works? I use those white compactor bags for all sorts of things! 😊

[@cpech2]

IT'S BEAUTIFUL!! HOW MANY CANS OF PAINT DID YOU USE ON IT?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

I believe I used two!

[@nancyorkeithm1518]

I am curious why you did not use the heritage cleaner/deglosser? I have used both products (the one in your video and the heritage stuff) and think it worked the same but just curious for your thoughts?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

I already had the other degreaser on hand so I used it!

[@margueriterizzo7925]

Why not just use the roller? First use brush to get detail areas, then use roller, smooth and no brush marks.

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

I'm sure you could do that, but applying the paint with a brush first is what the paint company recommends.

[@pab6069]

Nice job, do you think is better than beyond paint?

[@patricialayden5624]

Like I said.

[@amyshelton3250]

What did you do about bubbles?

Thanks for sharing. What color is this?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

[@DonnaWells-g6i]

I found using the foam roller left air bubbles and I couldn’t get them out!

[@jafallica]

When you use the deglosser, do you just paint or do you have to rinse off?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

You use the deglosser like a cleaner and just apply it to the surface with a rag and wipe it off.

[@jafallica]

@@1sprunger Great!

[@missyasche881]

You do have to worry about using too much paint. I used too much and ended up with thousands, literally thousands, of air bubbles! I brushed the paint on, then rolled with a sponge roller and that actually caused the air bubbles because I had too much paint applied. Fortunately, only a handful remained after the piece dried. I lightly sanded the bubbles that remained and did my second coat.

[@gunbladegirl]

I used that exact same method on my first piece (a large mirror) and had the exact same experience! Most of the air bubbles disappeared as it dried but it did give the finished piece an interesting texture. So now I'm browsing KZbin looking for the actual best method, ha

[@SandraAnnEvans]

THANKS FOR THAT! I HATE FOAM ROLLERS FOR THIS REASON? I JUST PURCHASED THIS PAINT AND SOME OF THE ROLLERS. I HOPE THEY AREN'T THE ONE'S YOU EXPERIENCED THIS PAINT BUBBLING WITH?

[@missyasche881]

@@SandraAnnEvans my problem was using too much paint. Using the foam roller after brushing the paint on helps smooth the paint. When you use the foam roller to smooth the paint, use a very light touch, don't push down on the roller or it could cause more bubbles. As it dries, if any bubbles remain, most, if not all, bubbles do disappear. If any are left behind after drying completely, use fine sand paper to smooth them. Then apply a light coat of paint. It worked for me. Hope this wasn't confusing. Lol

[@aquafina2u]

Maybe it looks better in person because I can see a lot of blotches. Why didn’t you take the drawers off? Did you even paint the edges of the drawers? Normally, the heirloom lady will use the sponge for the first application. Then she’ll use the brush and then the foam roller.

[@kaleahsface9933]

What about the durability with this paint? Have you done a scratch test? Please let us know!

Durability is fantastic. Passes a scratch test even a year plus later.

[@monicawilson8945]

Thank you so much for the helpful info! How much paint did it take to cover the end tables with 3 coats?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

It took about 1 quart for three coats. They have a handy calculator on their website. www.allinonepaint.com/heypaula

[@tsinay40]

2 coats, thats not happening for me, Im already on 4th coat, and it better look good after that. Maybe I'm not using enough of the paint. Im painting cherry cabinets with linen pain color!

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

Oh wow 4 coats! You know, it says "all in one" but I'm still a believer that if you are going from dark to light it's best to use a seperate primer first.

[@Jade_902]

They tell you to use their primer if going light color over cherry.

[@BusbyRanch]

I’m crazy, but I see that white cabinet behind you and I have been looking for over a year for something I like. Where did you get it?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

It's a shoe storage cabinet from Wayfair. I just looked and they don't sell it anymore. Amazon has something similar. Here is an affiliate link to something that looks like it. amzn.to/3SUzE3U

[@marthareynolds7747]

I thought you didn’t have to sand, so why are you using a liquid sandpaper deglosser?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

It's always important to use a degreaser to fully clean the surface. The liquid sandpaper is an added bonus for extra adhesion.

[@Hannah10531]

How is this holding up?

[@RepurposeandUpcycle]

so far so good! Actually great. It's very scratch resistant which was my biggest worry.

is this a water based paint?

This paint is awesome yes watch some of their videos, lot easier than this.

[@ladybleu222]

You are doing it wrong, if it drips or you are using a lot. No, I don't work for the company. You do an ugly scratch coat - then you have to wait before you add the second coat.

This is not the way to do it at all !!! If you want to use this paint please watch the actual All in One Heirloom Paint channel. This was painful to watch.
