@@agiagata945 I don’t usually use plastic for these, but if I did I would definitely prime them with a white gesso first. I have also used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint very successfully. I find matte paint works much better. Thanks for your comment and keep creating!!! Janet xx

I'm not talking about saltwash but I do love that too lol kosher coarse that's what I'm talking about

Hey there Amanda! To buff your wax all you need is a lint free cloth or a paper towel that is more like a shop towel. With a light touch, just start gently wiping your waxed surface. Light pressure, your arm should not hurt when you buff. If it does, you are working too hard😉 Let the rag/towel do the work. You may feel the wax tugging and resisting at first, but as you buff you should notice the cloth begin to slide more along the surface. If you never feel that nice glide and it seems tacky after buffing, that usually mean you have too much wax on the surface. If that happens, no worries, it’s an easy fix. Contrary to what would make sense, to reduce the wax on your surface simply apply a little more wax. I know it sounds crazy, but what happens is the fresh wax reactivates the older wax and it softens it. Now with the softened wax you can easily wipe away the excess. I know I just gave you a lot of information, I hope I didn’t complicate things or confuse you. If so let me know and I’ll try to break it down or answer any other questions. Happy buffing and thanks for visiting my channel💗 Janet xx

You’re welcome 💗💗

So glad you found it useful. Be well….Janet x

Hello Suzanne! First I want to say thank you for watching my video. I think the fixative should work fine. It's non yellowing and should protect the painted design properly. Happy Holidays!! Warmly, Janet x

You’re welcome 💗💗

That's wonderful Diane, have fun!! Janet xx

Hello Carine and thank you so much for visiting my TH-cam channel. You’ll be happy to know that this painted and decoupage chair still looks fantastic. Decoupage, if done properly, will last for many many years. There are actually examples of decoupage furniture and decor items in museums that still look good to this day. Thanks again and be well.. Janet xx

Kierstyn Hinkle thank you so much! Be well and have fun painting. Hugs...Janet x

Hey Roseanne.......Thanks so much for watching my video. I researched your poring medium and I am not sure if they are interchangeable. The pouring med. looks like it makes your paint more fluid as opposed to an extender, which just gives you a longer open time with your paint. It dries slower. You can always try just a touch of it. The extender is not absolutely needed, try it without. The Minwax polyacrylic finish should be fine as a final sealer. Be sure to let your paint dry completely. Have fun! Janet xx

@@StudioJanet Thanks Janet for the quick response!

daniel uvalle hey Dani! I used Annie Sloan clear and (dark) brown wax. Thank you for watching. Janet xx

Kelly Acker For this project are used artist grade acrylics like Amsterdam or Liquitex . Having said that if craft paint is all you have, that will work also. They are just not as highly pigmented as artists grade. As for brushes, I use lots of different brands. Some of my favorite that I’ve had for many years were purchased online at Artist Club, their Papillon brand. Round brushes are my favorites. Thanks so much for watching..Janet x

Linda Kriegel Really, Warrenton is a beautiful little town with lots of Civil War history!

Dustin Keller hello Dustin, no I never prime when I paint furniture. It’s not necessary if you use Annie Sloan paint. I know there are lots of chalk style paints out there now, even more so than when I filmed this video, but hers offers excellent coverage and adhesion over all kinds of surfaces. Thanks so much for your comment and for watching . Have a great day..Janet x

@@StudioJanet Thank you!
