How to Glaze Architectural Moulding | Faux Finish

[@JW-kt5ls]

So many people waste time by talking about themselves and why they do projects. You were VERY professional and cut right to the work. Awesome work and excellent video!!!! Thank You!!!!

[@michaelc.3812]

First video where you surprised me with a faux pas... the light switch should have been moved. No so difficult for me, as an electrical contractor, but you likely have picked up some of those tricks since you made this early career video Richard. Kudos for all the great work you do!

[@jasonward759]

I swear who ever did that trim work is the real mvp. How can u make trim wood inlays inside of trim amazing work .

[@guerradan1958]

Richard I appreciate this vid. I like the picture frame molding that was used here. Changing out my inside molding on my board and batten wall. Great idea!!

[@TheDesertRat31]

Nice work! Glad I've found your videos. Really enjoying them. We had this effect done in our kitchen, fireplace mantle and surround, and some built-in bookcases. We have a slightly heavier effect with the faint "smearing" to approximate grain lines. It's a neat look and as you say, it makes the detail pop, particularly for 3-piece molding. When I first saw the effect I didn't really like it, but we found an example in a home while planning our new home we built. It looks really good, but you have to take the other elements into consideration such as things like choice of back splashes (or what's already there), counter tops, etc. I have a hobby wood shop and I tried this on some small experimental pieces, just to try it myself. You certainly have to get the "touch" right. The key to this style is, to me, keep it subtle. It'll still highlight the details, but can get too much very easily. The gleaming while of non-glazed trim was a little too white. Besides, we have kids and this technique sort-of hides the little marks and blemishes that you get... Another detail I had done was faux panels (matching the cabinet doors) on the large pieces on the end of the fridge "box" and outside ends of the cabinets. It makes a nice finished appearance vs. a plane panel. Again, nice work. looking forward to the next vid.

[@stoveboltlvr3798]

Another great video Richard. I like how thorough you explain things. Don't care much for that look, it looks dirty. Wall switch by the steps should have been raised.

[@jaylawrence1784]

Basically adding the dirt that accumulates over many years. Instant antiquing.

[@tassie7325]

Yeh. That was my thought. I appreciate that some people may like this look, but it is definitely not for me. I totally understand Richards comment about doing all that paintwork to make it look nice and then spoiling that and doing more work just to make it look dirty.

[@Carl-LaFong1618]

agree, it's not for me. I like the nice clean look but can appreciate that style.

[@ohiorn34]

Beautiful. Love the antiquing. Thanks for all of your great videos.

[@TitaniumDR1]

Good video. Another thing to add is make sure you're constantly repositioning the clean rag over your finger so you don't reuse a dirty spot. I saw you doing it but for a noob such as myself I think it's important to mention.

[@mandohxxdinthacut549]

you taught me alot about the product we make for you guys

[@RedBeardCarpentryWoodworks]

Absolutely beautiful work man!

[@Bobg425]

Think this must be a US thing,dont see it in the UK ,well the original stuff but not this.I dont like it but commented to say what a good demonstration video it was,clear concise.Nice one.

[@TeddyTheBoxer432]

Did you miter that switch plate? Just bustin chops you do some nice work if your ever in jersey look me up I’ll show you how we nail together a 2x4

[@sandofarms]

You are the best! I'm going to glaze the entire house now.

[@generationofbmx]

I love your channel and trim work ideas. It's perfect for giving me inspiratio on remodeling my Victorian house. Thank you!!

[@joedejesus6363]

Excellent work, your a man that really knows his trade well. Really enjoyed this video, you really taught me something today, Thanks.

[@jayhari1713]

I work in a kitchen cabinet shop as the head finisher and we/I do maybe a dozen glazing jobs a year....having said that, they can be fun, but some profiles make it extremely annoying and time consuming. Especially if ur OCD like me lol, but that's the point of glazing (generally) is to look man made and not pin stripe robotic, although one can ask for that super neat drawn on look. More often than not, it is supposed to look perfectly imperfect or consistently inconsistent.

[@africancichlids3011]

im not a fan of the glazin , but thats great for you another service to provide , great work nice job

[@АлексейМаринчев-м1з]

Richard, why the chair rail on the panel which you are glazing has no return on the end of it?

[@flores062308]

Wow that is amazing work..great job...how did you get those outside corners without putting a molding corner piece

[@Bushspaperplanes]

I feel like the light switch at the bottom of the stairs should’ve been moved. Eye sore but, the rest of your work I love man! 🤙🏼

[@mranderson4194]

looks Great Rich.... nice job

[@AttackGirl]

Shocking and amazing. Reminds me of a bad stain job and I too would have a problems staining that beautiful white project

[@satberhoxhaj3347]

nice work that looks beautiful

[@aurelianovmaldonado1148]

I really like your videos . you kind of explain really good . I always leave with no questions.

[@myhauntedislandhome62]

Just awesome

[@leonelzuniga3090]

This video helped me so much best technique

[@johnawhiting]

Where do you purchase the various MDF moldings? Have not seen at HD, or Lowes!

[@christopherkennedy314]

Love that background track!🤗

[@kyledonne6145]

The beadboard panels look great! I noticed on the panel next to a room opening you trimmed the wainscoting with quarter round or shoe. I am curious how you blend it in to the baseboard?

[@fritula6200]

This is so big and popular now! ..this is an aging effect. l have this moulding in my whole house l really like it.

[@davekolbe248]

Can you identify the panel mouldings you used going up the stairs around the beadboard? Awesome stuff, love the vids!!!

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

they are called pm-2. thanks!

[@bitterchild7133]

like all your vids... wish you would do dvds on crown molding; I would buy them

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

Thanks!

[@stevemullins3362]

How did you do the chair rail on this video?? Is it a multiple layer build up or a custom one piece molding?

[@Letusadore]

Beautiful work! I have some courage now. I also feel weird starting on the glaze after all the priming and painting hehe. 😩😊❤

[@jackmasse8227]

With as detailed as you usually get, I am surprised you didnt mitre the chair rail back into itself at the ends, especially on an accented trim

[@mbrusso01]

I like your vids. You know what you are doing

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

+mbrusso01 Thank you.

[@camillewestermann240]

I liked the rich brown color and I have found the faux impressions glaze but need to know what the mix ratio was that you used in the video? the can says 1 to 3 or 1 to 1 but I don't know which is the deeper. your advice please.

[@martinarmendariz605]

very good job my friend I learned something new.

[@joshhyma842]

looks good. why not move the switch up an inch? Cut switch boxes look nasty

[@scotlandwoodwork2553]

What paint finish did you use to allow a Ploy spray coat? I'm ignoring the glaze of course, wondering if the paint was mat, semi...etc?

[@Wayne-fe1ed]

Very nicely done. Thanks for the tips.

[@johnr4207]

How do you deal with trimming around those bullnose corners?

[@NathanHarrison7]

Blast from the past! Music sounds like the original Tron sound track. You look the same though.

[@jeremybaumgart]

Great effect. 👍

[@nantucketjeep]

That's some boss sheet!

[@pepperplum2166]

Lovely work. I have a question though; what paint sheen do you recommend on millwork that is going to be glazed like this? And in crown molding that has heavy detail, in your opinion, does it look better glazed or just painted white?

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

+PepperPlum 21 Thanks. Satin all the way. I do not like gloss or semi-gloss for trim, but unfortunately that's what a lot of people are using these days. I think it looks better just painted white. The glaze is nice, but its not for everyone.

[@pepperplum2166]

+dfw crown Thanks for responding. Will the satin still show all the intricacies in the millwork? The person I spoke to at the paint store told me that since higher sheens show imperfections more, it would show detail better. I understand what she's saying but I'm concerned that too high a gloss will make the molding look like plastic.

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

+PepperPlum 21 I agree with her 100%. Satin is not a high gloss finish. It is a very dull finish. Yes, satin will show all the detail. Satin would be your best choice. The high gloss and semi-gloss do make the mouldings look weak in my opinion.

[@dorothybernhardt1261]

Hi Richard! What ratio did you use when tenting your glaze?

[@jakemaddox76]

Sorry bud, last question (for now :-), when you are installing wainscott in a house that has the outside corners with a radius (I'm sure you see this in Texas all the time), do you cut a small piece with two 45 degree cuts, or do you just do a 90 degree corner and then fill in the gaps at the top with caulk and sand? I'm looking to do wainscott in my home and the baseboard has a small (maybe 1") piece at the corners, seems like ripping the long strips with the MDF for the corners with two 45 cuts would be a lot more work. Just curious how you do it. Thanks again.

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

+Jacob Maddox Good question. Yes, we do rip down long strips to make the actual corner. Its actually pretty easy.

[@tomholmes1350]

Now the Sherwin Williams has discontinued their 'faux impressions' line at their retail stores, what glaze do you now recommend? Thanks for the great videos!

[@BrokenRRT]

Tom Holmes - Home Depot stocks the "BEHR PREMIUM PLUS WITH STYLE® Faux Glaze". My local Sherwin Williams stopped carrying glaze long ago so we used the Martha Stewart faux glaze sold in quarts. I tinted it myself but they did tint it to a point. Then they stopped selling that line of her label and changed to selling pre tinted mostly in metallics of her label in hobby size 10oz containers. It's a shame because her quart clear glaze was a great product and actually cheaper than the Behr. I was forced to to try the Behr brand glaze sold in quarts and very happy with it. They will also tint it.

[@javiersaavedra41]

Muy bien una pregunta le tipo de pintura usa para haser el glazed ?

[@Wesley-ci8qk]

Nice work mate! Do you spray the whole board with the Poly spray? or just the glazed areas? does it lay smooth enough to achieve a good finish?Thanks

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

thanks man. yeah we spray the whole thing, it does leave a good fine finish.

[@mabird6852]

...but what if you want to paint the upper wall a different color than the wainscoting, like green (which I think is a much nicer look, two different colors of paint instead of all white)? The trim doesn't reach the edge of the wall in left corner of this picture, the section behind the 3 chairs. Can you run the trim to the edge of the doorway and blunt cut it? It looks like you did that on the right side of the doorway--why not on the left, too, so you can paint the upper wall a darker color?

[@philippedesquijano4628]

any design or method can we use for metalic gold from sherwin williams?you have video?

[@jeffnarum1373]

What paint finish do you want? Give me the "Indoor Chain Smoker," enterior, eggshell, from Sherm.

[@flores062308]

How did you back cut it ? It must of being tough?

[@christopherblair1456]

I think the result would have been more tasteful had the glazing color been a little more subdued or subtle but i will defin be using this technique at some point.

[@gentbar7296]

what base coat ? waterbased latex-vinil ? thats beautyfull to hide cheap mdf like that. poli cover got it

[@heyman4172]

GREAT JOB!

[@rockyethridge7272]

Great work Richard 👍 you could sell, how to dvds on trim and molding. thanks

[@erniezamora9509]

where do you get cloth wipe

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

+Ernie Zamora Home Depot.

[@cabbyhubby]

Dadgum electrician shoulda moved that switch

[@raviahirwar7010]

Very good

[@jlazore]

Using a wet rag, doesn't it take too much of the glaze off?

[@Kman.]

ALL the glaze is coming off, exCEPT for the recessed area where his thumb doesn't touch.

[@shonuffisthemaster]

it does make the panels look more defined, but they also look dirty tbh. think it would look better painted a darker color that would naturally bring out the highlights, or painted different colors, although this would be more work

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

+shonuffisthemaster You're exactly right. This look will always be controversial because it is an issue of ones personal taste. Painting some trim a different color would definitely be cool, but yes a lot of work. Thanks for the comment!

[@johnsweeny1888]

Invest in a masker to protect the walls and carpet

[@luisLopez-uz3mv]

how can i get the music or song name plz?

[@luisLopez-uz3mv]

i liked de music in this video sounds great !

[@dustyhush]

top job man

[@CrookedJoeBiden]

Thanks👍🏻

[@raulruiz1922]

No return on that chair rail

[@us-Her-Bestti]

Молодчина👍👍👍

[@niteowl9733]

nice.

[@anthonylopez2884]

Nice work. Should of talked in moving electric switch. Easy and extra money.

[@lucero7625]

Nice!!

[@mstrwul1]

I prefer the white...dont like the glaze, but that's just my preference.

[@joshuabushared5619]

Epic.

[@chrissantos3415]

I just have to point out that light switch

[@keithwiddison4520]

who puts trim over a switch plate? surprised to see that in your work . . . thought you would show us a clever way around that problem

[@robertvandermark4010]

Stains a little dark looks like dirt in an transmission shop

[@theblazingrevolver4719]

OMG over spray on the entire house

[@poker4080]

Damn good!!! If it's not ur company, I hope ur boss is paying you $50.00 an hour!

[@davidvasquez3564]

He is the CEO of the company.

[@gentbar7296]

wizard owl lol

[@gentbar7296]

good luck... you gotta do gov. crap to see wages off the roof

[@grassman3455]

Yeah he's the owner operator CEO he's probably the accountant

[@mulliganarch]

That light switch.....

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

I cut it . it looks cool. haha

[@willdesorcy5868]

To bad they didn’t finish the prep work that job could have looked really good.

[@chamanrickheeram5099]

Customer should of left it without the glaze. Has a much cleaner look.

[@carsongoodman5581]

Richard always does good work, I’m sure this is expert level glazing but I am just not a fan of this at all. It has a messy look to it. Great video but definitely not my taste

[@jobalvarado9727]

Nooooooo😑 oil base product is better definition and quality

[@jt9967]

I just have the kids wipe there filthy hands on my casing and molding

[@tanman2268]

Meh. Not for me. So I'm wondering why in another video I asked you a question and the stated that I have seen you around town (wearing your DFW Crown shirt) and instead of answering my question you kinda threw shade and mocked me as if I'm lying? I'm confused. Forget it, can you answer my question tho? Again explain the dividing by 4 and dividing by two on angle miter cuts when to do it, I don't quite understand. Thanks! Still love the channel

[@Miles10Puckett]

bullnose divide by 4, 90 degree corner divide by 2.

[@grassman3455]

It does make it look dirty I would have kept it White

[@musashinagatsubo9574]

Why not just use a pen stripping brush for the valleys? Less wiping/overrun.

[@paol505]

looks dirty to me

[@gentbar7296]

paol505 put it next to your deep lard frying kitchen wall then you can like it

[@fullmetalnolatheboot2854]

My first dislike

[@BaselBannoud]

It just looks old and dirty!

[@thecarpenterpros9822]

Don’t like the new name. Not the same. Sell out!
