HOW TO: Whitewash

[@silvapopaz9227]

Thank you so very much ! I now feel confident and eager to begin my project .Best video!

[@armzforte23]

This might actually be the best video of hundreds I've watched, thank you very much.

[@Bessie66]

Just whitewashed my first piece of up cycled furniture after stripping all the wax off it - I’m sure it’s saying Thankyou to me for being able to breathe again and it looks lovely ❤you can still see the knotted pine through it

[@ThatReallyWeirdArtist]

Thank you for a straight forward shade guide to whitewashing. Every other video or web page I looked at it was all too heavy of pigment and I want a liiight whitewash when I refinish my kitchen cabinets so I really appreciate this ❤

[@Monsieur.Nobody.]

My left ear loved your video!

[@sharonray764]

What type of white paint do you use? Is it a matte, semi-gloss, satin finish? And I am sure you also use an interior white correct?

[@snicklefritz6182]

Consider having the music volume much lower. Hard to hear what you are saying.

[@janetlomastro3256]

Very helpful video thank you. I will be white washing a wall covered with cedar boards (the species is white Cedar, which has a yellow color not the red the is common with cedar chests) I want more of a white over brown look. I can't find a sample board to practice on. im just wondering if cedar will work very differently than wood like the pine in your demo. Do you have any experience white washing over cedar?

[@agontop1]

Excellent video! Thank you so much for taking the time! Quick question, in the mixed water/paint method, did you use a dryer or wet rag to wipe?

[@colindean8261]

Paint? What kind of paint?? Vinyl, acrylic, oil-based? And what do you mean by "sporadic"?

[@KatieBookser]

Awesome, I don't know anything about this so it was fun to learn some new tips!

[@TimberTea]

glad to hear you learned something new! :)

[@oscarocampo2607]

Can I apply clear lacquer on it ?

[@kkullrich3044]

Nice! I can't wait to try the waxed technique, next week. Painting pallet boards. Thank you.

[@TimberTea]

Glad the whitewash video helped. Let me know how you make out!

[@Jade10122]

Thank you!! Great vid, with great ideas. I love the idea of mixing my own white wash.

[@michelles1517]

Can I do dark brown over the white ? I like the wax effect never did that. What other wax can I use?

[@nancywheeler5993]

Great information thanks 😊 👍

[@JBTV]

Very nice, I'm going to do this soon to my new made timber superking size bed 😁

[@laureanapequicho5945]

Hello I loved it! Can you tell me if it is possible to do the oposite? Paint white and to get dark With another dark colour and water? And then finish with wooden varnish? Thank you. ☺️

[@321clap2]

Hello, for the barn wood can we put a protection after the wax technique ?

[@georgeculbertson1738]

Very nice video for sure. I do have a couple questions. You mentioned how the Minwax pickling and the Arborcoat stain looked the same but you didn’t really compare them to the 1 coat of 50/50. How do they look in comparison? If you were white washing interior doors is that all you would do? Would you put a protective coat on top of the white washing?

[@chelseajohnson8408]

These are awesome tips! I have never seen that idea with the candle!

[@TimberTea]

it creates such a unique finish!

[@SarahVanderkooy]

Great tips as always, I love the look of whitewash but I don't have a go to method. I am going to try the wax candle method, I love the look!

[@TimberTea]

its a fun one too! lol

[@HappilyOrganizedChaos]

Great video!! I'll be planning some whitewashing come this spring, so this video was helpful!

[@TimberTea]

awesome! i bet it will look amazzinggg

[@agontop1]

I’m wondering if the first whitewash/ pickling products would have absorb better with a prestain or wood conditioner

[@TimberTea]

Yes I used pine for the whitewash demo other than the barn board not sure what it is !

[@BradThePitts]

Are these acrylic water-based paints or oil paints? I always use oil paint because it dries hard as a rock, it lasts forever, and well worth the extra effort in clean-up. I don't think oil and water would mix. If these are water-based paints, do you think the wax candle method will work with oil paint?

[@TimberTea]

yepp, they are acrylic water-based paints. i've never tried using oil, but i think you're right, the it wouldn't mix right with the water.

[@tomtom786]

Well explained and great video. Thanks

[@allysonbuggey6067]

Im having a really hard time hearing you over your audio track. Would you do an updated version?? 🥺💕

[@emostorm7]

Is that water based paint? If not, why not use paint thinner?

[@TimberTea]

It is water based paint. thats a great idea tho if you're using oil based paint!

[@ivycarnes1650]

What kind of paint did you use on the 1:1

[@hugoperaltaaraya8583]

great I love your videos are very well explained. you do it with a lot of passion

[@TimberTea]

thanks hugo!

[@richardsilva-spokane3436]

New sub, thanks

[@SikhaCrafts]

Great upload!!❣

[@TimberTea]

thanks girl!

[@classicautogroup8798]

Is that a pine wood?

[@LindaDulcinea]

Thank you for this helpful video! Would there be any way to create texture some texture or brush strokes/lines using the water+paint method on a smooth piece of wood?

[@jordans.2665]

I listen to this late at night. audio only.

[@RickBomhof]

my left ear found this very informative

[@robshamel3210]

Curious, for the paint and water mixture, does it need to be water based paint? Thx!

[@TimberTea]

great question! if you are mixing it with water, it would have to be mixed with water based paint. I read tho, that if you want to use oil based, you could 'water' it down with turpentine!

[@EduardoMotta]

Very good!

[@seney2]

Great Video!! Turn the music down with the next video. :)

[@natbugera5065]

you put the whitewash on a pine board and showed it immediately. Wait a few months and the tannins will bleed through and you will have a totally disgusting mess with brown splotches. You need to use a shellac based sealer in clear to block the tannins BEFORE whitewashing

[@MistarZtv]

the only white washing i can get behind. also the voice is only coming out of the left track for anyone else?

[@MarcoMorelos]

My left ear is crying TBH

[@erwinduew]

Thank's for the Tipps.👍

[@TimberTea]

no problem friend ;)

[@queenvixen1435]

Instead of doing the work of two coats why not just cut down on the water so it’s not so transparent and get away with one coat?

[@ngarci8040]

Gift card looks best in my opinion BUT I don’t see myself doing a entire wall let alone an entire room that way…

[@lindaholland9944]

I love the video but that background music is very distracting.

[@rodneycampbell-kk1yt]

Your sound mix is off... background music over power the vocal, so it's difficult to hear you explain your technique

[@irvinwittmeier5208]

!;-)Thankyou

[@hanawood719]

Whythe music is so laud? It's disturbing !!!

[@channel-rf2fj]

Hello

[@TimberTea]

hello 😊

[@msgwen2u]

The music is louder than you...

[@Sarah-Weinberg]

Music is too loud.

[@cindyschleicher334]

Less music

[@danmiller9868]

Cut the background music

[@lukerichardson9301]

Please nobody like this, I'm just trying to give constructive feedback and I don't want this being the first thing people see. Left right audio balance. You could probably soften the volume of the music as well. But your video is great otherwise. But fuck, I guess I'm no expert. It's a great helpful video overall.

[@SyntaxScout]

The video is fine,you annoying loud music fade your voice down, and your mic balance is way off.People from comments are not smart enough to notice the difference anyway.

[@agontop1]

Exotwin maybe you should try that on your uploads.. oh right you don’t have any. Whatta tool

[@mkj1951]

Quit listening after .42 seconds - your loud music over your voice made it worthless.

[@TimberTea]

video editing is something that I have taught myself and its been a huge learning curve! and don't worry, one thing I have learned is that background music goes in the background! 😝

[@mkj1951]

@@TimberTea Nice to hear that I will try a more current video, because the other did look very promising :D

[@rosaruvolobasile9025]

Why play music when your explaining something it’s so distracting. Couldn’t even hear what u we’re saying

[@paulbriggs3072]

There is ABSOLUTELY NO whitewash in this video. Am I the only one who knows what REAL whitewash is? Made from hydrated lime for 3000 years and mentioned in the Bible. Look up REAL lime whitewash recipes from somewhere.

[@clmitchell1166]

She never mentions limewash or lime white wash. She only states whitewash. You've assumed it.
