How to Antique a Mirror

[@vanessaschulz1]

Thank you! Very helpful and to those who commented about your bare feet... she didn't paint the mirror with her feet!!

[@deborahharris2962]

That is great, best method and result I've seen. Thanks.

Might be good also to use a floor fan for ventilation even when outside

Hello! Do you have an antiquing how to for Chinese mirrors?

[@trashytrevino]

When using muriatic acid. Please be in an open ventilated area. You can also use 50/50 water and bleach in a spray bottle if you don’t have the acid.

[@robertjames-life4768]

Very nice. Thanks for sharing. I have to give you crap about using acid while wearing shorts! 😉

[@SoMuchBetterWithAge]

And shorts! Thanks for pointing that out for the viewers. You definitely (and I should have) been way more careful with the acid.

Hi! Can you make a video on how to antique a mirror from China?

[@kathleenlafferty3246]

Anyone doing this please wear closed toe shoes and long trousers when using the acid!

[@marciamariabressanelli7853]

I believe you can age with water mixed with vinegar 😊

I have a mirror that I stripped. It has a red back and when I stripped it, it wasn't like yours. I did hear you say something about it being made in China? Mine didn't say that on it. It had American writing on it. Like an American company name. Anyway I wish I could post a picture of what has happened to the mirror and if it's salvageable, fingers crossed. Do you have an email that I can send you a picture?

Excellent

[@omidrastkhiz9549]

Sorry, you started working on the back of the mirror, and at the end paint it with gold, why? I thought one step before painting gold was completely done. How did you paint it completely to gold and then change it to antique?

[@mariacas7974]

You didn’t say how long to leave the goo stuff on for.
