I liked it before because a lot of my pieces of furniture are finished like that. However you put a lot of work into it and it looks beautiful now. ❤

What about using chalk paint and no sanding and oven chemical cleaning spray ?

[@matiaslazzari3219]

I live in Argentina and they don't sell Fusion Mineral Paint here. Can this effect be achieved with chalk paint? Thank you for purchasing your work!

[@daniellenicholsonliving3035]

@@matiaslazzari3219 Fusion Mineral Paint is waterproof and washable whereas chalk paint would need to have a varnish type finish to make it waterproof. Thank you for watching my video. I appreciate you.

May i ask the make and model of your sander?

[@daniellenicholsonliving3035]

Yeah, for sure! I have linked everything in the description. If you head on over to my Amazon storefront 🇺🇸or 🇨🇦 and click on the image of the cabinet, everything I used for the project is there. Hope this helps please let me know if you have any other questions.

So, ..... You did not "Seal" or "Top-Coat" it @ All ? 🤔

@@wildcountrykat Fusion Mineral Paint is made with high quality ingredients, including a durable built-in top coat that cures to a washable matte sheen. No top required for normal everyday use

What kind of top coat did you use?

[@daniellenicholsonliving3035]

@@kathyandthedogs626 I did not use a topcoat and don’t feel that it’s necessary for this particular piece. However, fusion does make some amazing topcoats. I would do a test spot though just to make sure the colour doesn’t turn at all. They also make one that is a Matt finish which I think would be ideal for this look

[@harveydales2402]

Where do you buy fusion paint? Is it different than the ordinary latex paint?

[@daniellenicholsonliving3035]

@@harveydales2402 click on my Amazon storefront 🇺🇸 or 🇨🇦 and you will find all products I used on this project listed under the cabinet image:) yes it’s a mineral base paint definitely different than a latex paint. It’s ideal for furniture. Good luck.🙂

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT "hosing it off" with water. It swells the wood! 👎👎👎👎👎👎 FUTURE FURNITURE FLIPPERS: Wipe the wood down while dry, or use something to blow off the dust from sanding. DON'T WASH THE FURNITURE DOWN then allow to dry!!

[@daniellenicholsonliving3035]

@@aimk5271 no it was perfectly fine. You can’t just wipe when you use oven cleaner. It was very hot outside and it dried as fast as I hosed it off and I also lightly sanded it after so there’s absolutely no swelling cabinet turned out amazing! Remember, all wood is very wet and saturated at some point. It does come from outside:)

[@aimk5271]

@@daniellenicholsonliving3035 39 seconds into the video you mentioned hosing it off after sanding. That's specifically what I was talking about.

[@aimk5271]

And after oven cleaner, to most, scraping this off then using mineral spirits would be much better than water. Watering the wood takes so much longer to dry off with the possibility of the wood swelling. When using mineral spirits, it evaporates quicker to be able to then wipe the product of whatever you're using, in this case, oven cleaner.

[@daniellenicholsonliving3035]

@@aimk5271 I mentioned that I sanded it first with an 80 grit to remove the shellac, then the oven cleaner, hosed it off and then I mention how important is to let it dry thoroughly, which on a hot day was pretty quick and then sanded it twice, went over it with a 120 grit and lastly to make sure it was nice and smooth I used 180 grit. I’m not here to dispute that there’s more than one way to do things. In my case, this worked out amazing . I would not suggest hosing it off and leaving it inside for days at a time with water sitting on it. But I think I communicate pretty thoroughly in the video how important the drying processes is. Many people have used water if you look at other videos. I should also mention doing it outside on a hot sunny day not only helps to dry it, but does also help to bleach the wood for the overall look I was trying to achieve.

[@daniellenicholsonliving3035]

@@aimk5271 in my opinion, I don’t think that using mineral spirits is enough, you want to wash the oven cleaner off. I would love to see a piece that you’ve done with this process please share. 😊
