Hey Amy, I'm watching from Tennessee as well. Thanks for sharing this video, I've been kinda stuck in a rut with the waxes. I'm new to mixed media and you're the first person to say anything about the plastic in the acrylic paint. I now know how to mix the wax correctly!! ❤️

[@garymullins4815]

Would I add more mica to apply with your fingers? TY

[@denisebyrd8343]

Great ideas and great money 💰 saving ideas Thanks 😊

[@ansaridt6062]

hi, you provided such priceless information and techniques, i want to ask that either the liquid carnauba wax like collinite no.845 can be used to protect and further making of mettalic waxes can be used or not?, although its an automobile wax but can be used as an option?

[@tinavigil9357]

I absolutely love that you were the first video to pop up when I asked if you could use mica in wax.question can it be added to paste wax as well? Also how about faux tin tiles? Mine are made of styrofoam. I know spray paint and spray adhesive melts them. And can the waxes be used over latex paint?

[@thecourtlyalchemist]

Brush or roll water based primer onto the styrofoam, make sure you get good coverage front back and sides. Let it dry thoroughly after each coat. Then after 2nd or 3rd coat dries completely overnight, you can use any spray paint, epoxy resin, gilding or paste wax, or glaze without worry of the styrofoam dissolving. Just be careful not to puncture through the primer coat, or if you have to cut it or something, you will need to seal it up again.

[@yasserabdulkadir7420]

Thank you for the nice video. Can you recommend a certain type or brand of wax please?

[@Risingphoenixx66]

Hello Amy, i,m watching from The Netherlands. Great that this video is still on you tube, i,m so excited to see all the possibilities. Too bad i didn,t found your channel earlier.I was wondering how would it look putting on some dust of the ages on top on those mica waxes, or isn,t that possible...just thinking. Thank you for all your teachings, you are very appreciated.

[@sranyak]

Amy, Do I have to use your one step paint to do your technique?

[@amyhowardathome]

Not necessarily.

[@nonanenewton238]

[@maxinekroll3084]

[@fmallow2727]

Are you using pure bees wax?

[@eganier]

I need to cover a silver chrome ceiling lamp. Will the wax melt due to heat or are these permanent?

[@lauraforconi9111]

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@annemariemacdonald6831]

Thank you so much for showing me how to do this.

[@brittanyharris922]

Can these be used on metal?

[@ACB2K]

You're the best Amy..💓💓👍

[@zulemapearce4949]

can you use wax finish on a gold lamp?

[@eloisecoppler8228]

I painted a table in derby brown want to use cheeta stencil. May I use copper mica and beeswax to stencil ?

[@amyhowardathome]

You won't be able to use a custom wax in combination with the stencil, but you could definitely make your design with a paint medium and then go back over it with the wax afterward!

[@janetjameisun7866]

Hi Amy, i just ordered the wax and mica powder. Can it be used on a table the i used acrylic paint on?

[@amyhowardathome]

Yes you can!

[@chrstphrdyer]

Please tell me which color the one step paint on the cabinet is?

[@annespillane8806]

Hi Amy, I love this video! Can it be used over leather?

[@amyhowardathome]

Yes you can!

[@elisafinch1325]

Question: Can I used in canvas fabric?that gold...

[@amyhowardathome]

Yes, you can though it will not be permanent in fabric.

[@Tinbkoxjewels]

Can I use the metallic glaze or wax over my existing kitchen cabinets without painting them? Should I clean my kitchen cabinets with Clean Slate first? My cabinets are espresso that were installed by the builder 8 years ago. #replay

[@tanahigginbotham9343]

What is the difference between mica powders and pigment powders?

[@amyhowardathome]

The main difference between Pigment Powder and Mica Powder is their shine. Pigment Powders are matte while Mica Powders are shimmery. You are left with a beautiful glow when you use Mica Powder. Mica Powders are also very versatile and can be used for an assortment of different projects.

[@MommaBearsCorner]

there are limitless in colors... you sell 7. that is the correct answer... just saying.. anyway, great idea and color mix is pretty. good video. thanks for sharing.

Where do you get your architrave frames from I live in south of France Luc armau Thankyou x

[@craftysquirrel2958]

Golden copper ! Ah I got it wrong ! 🤣😂

[@shahanahussain1334]

This kind of material is not available in our country unfortunately. U r sooo lucky to born and live in such a great place among workoholic and dedicated people 😍

[@nycscribe538]

Probably too late, but you can buy pearl mica powders and mix them with something that is a light colored hard wax, something bit a bit of carnuba wax in it. Think hard wax used on cars/shoes/furniture. That's what am doing since rub n buff isn't available in India either.
