I LOVE that color 💚 Always thought the wax went on, wipe excess off (if using antiquing/black/white, leave some in details), then wait 1-2 hours and buff…I’ve buffed too early and have taken too much wax and paint off.

Hi Ray, really enjoyed Your Nightstand Video. Just a Woodworker Here & Trying Milk paint 4-the first time. I made a Spice Carousel for My Sister & trying to match Her offwhite finished Kitchen Cabinets. I had bought a Can of General Finishes Antique White ,but Scared to use. Wish I had bought Powder after watching Your Video. Several Questions but will start with Two. First this piece is made of poplar do I need a primer Coat? Second trying on Scrap if not happy with Color can I add powder milk paint to premixed Water based milk paint? Sorry one More Question, what does chipping mean? Thank You for Your reply.Kay

This is my first flipping project and I bought the milk paint bc I loved the color but I had no idea what it would be like. I had no idea it would be chipping or peeling. Hopefully it works out.

In your chalk paint video you mentioned waiting several days to cure the paint/wax. Does that same curing porcess apply to milk paint?
@ARayofSunlight Жыл бұрын
Yes, wax still takes 30 days to cure, no matter what paint you put it over. But, in my experience the wax soaks into the milk paint way more than the chalk paint, so you aren’t left with a tacky surface for as long with the mlk paint.

After u put the wax on is it greasy to the touch? Can u seal with polyurethane instead?

Why sand after the 2nd coat?? Especially if wanting a non chippy look and a satin coat of poly
@ARayofSunlight2 жыл бұрын
Milk paint is really rough if you don’t sand it. And I wanted a somewhat chippy look, but not a majorly chippy look.

@magicgordo48782 жыл бұрын
@@curleygurlie First a tip.. If ya need or want a smidgen of milkpaint, mix some inexpensive artists acrylic with some powdered milk. the fifty cent stuff at WalMart works just great. The leftover powdered milk can be reconstituted with water or toss some in some homebrew yogurt or keep the box as sort of a trophy to indicate that the diet is still in effect. We now move to "mineral paint". Chalk or Calcium Carbonate is a mineral. We segue to mud wrestling. The mud used was a slurry of Bentonite and water and the babes weren't really nude. We recall the nude stuff started when the mud was out and Jello was the new mud.

When we say 1:1 ratio, are we talking weight or volume? Similar to using flour in baking, powder can either be tightly or lightly packed, giving varying results.
@ARayofSunlight2 жыл бұрын
It’s a lose term. If you want it thinner, don’t pack the powder into the cup. If you want the paint thicker, pack it tightly. It doesn’t have to be exact. I personally like it on the thinner side.
