Best Way to Apply Wipe on Poly to protect your wood finishes
Yay, I was able to fix myself drawer today. So simple but just didn’t make sense. Thanks for the video!
@@LaEmmadeUSA Great Job!
What type of rag did you use to apply? Ha! Almost looks like a paper towel, but I know that can't be right...
NO! NO paper towels! It is a lint free cloth that has poly on it already! There is a link in the description of this video to lint free cloths from amazon or an old white cotton tshirt works also!
@@layersofgracedesigns9351 Awesome! Thank you. And yeah, I know you didn't actually use a paper towel. Hence the "Ha!" comment
There is no description
Shorts did away with long description after this published. We sanded the maple wood to a 220 grit smoothness and then used a black stain on it. The black turned into the perfect dark brown color. This will also work on birch woods.
Thanks 👍
Wow what a great way to make something look old and dirty when it's really new and clean. Truly a genius hack. 5 minute crafts levels of brilliance.
@@dakota8189 ha ha ha.
I am hoping I don't have to sand it first. The piece looks great "as is", but I want to darken it only.
People waste so much needlessly, so pls you fighting my fight ❤❤❤
That was very helpful! I like ZAR products. I will try a 50/50 mix of their poly and mineral spirits.
great video - great presentation the explanation is very clear and easy for me to understand there are way too many useless dyi videos on youtube that do not describe the absolute basics you need to start with as a beginner this guy is just great - thank you :)

What sheen is best matte finish or satin finish
@@ShanaDiYardieGirl Satin is the most popular right now. Matte is second. It is just a preference to how shiny you want your pieces to be
Well it was beautiful....
Great Video! How do I do it if I have an irregular shape like a guitar?
I used to paint professionally. I would always get the primer tinted with the paint color I was using and I would usually be able to get a perfect finish with only one coat of paint. It made the job way easiersaved me time and saved my clients money. It always blows my mind that most painters don't automatically do this. I'm just getting into furniture flipping. I plan on always priming, even with the all in one paints, and I will tint the primer with my paint color. I also plan on using a top coat, and will likely tint that as well
idk what a steel toe is gonna do when the nail comes up in your sole
Or maybe, get a tetanus shot. If you step on it once, youll make sure to never leave nails stick up like that again.
@@Fixed-1t yeah, wouldn’t be any fun at all
I know nothing more than I did before I watched. A microsecond of the front of a bottle of something does not allow anyone to know what it is.
Good Point! The product is Voo Doo Stain by Dixie Belle. The color is Al Natural 😊
What color is that?
@@beingsaved the color is Peppercorn by Wise Owl One Hour Enamel
And this is why guys don't let women do "a man's job". Because, a very VARY small minority of women cannot understand the most basic of concepts. Like shaking your spray paint can to STIR THE PAINT instead of wasting a whole goddamn dish strainer. Removing the paint from inside the spray paint can completely removes the point of having it in a spray can to begin with.
I’m not going to take advise from a woman in this matter. Thank you though
@@Edwin5467 sorry this made you feel threatened by a woman. As the man of this channel. Paint isn’t perfect. It is always good advice to strain the paint. It doesn’t take any additional time to pour it through a strainer Also, the spray guns come with strainers for this reason
@@layersofgracedesigns9351are you an idiot? You are supposed to stir the paint yourself. Lmao. Congratulations you have every man watching this cringing their ass off at this stupid sh.
@@layersofgracedesigns9351I have no idea where the hell you're buying spray paint cans that come with strainers lol. But there's a reason all the spray paint cans have little metal balls inside for you to shake.
This is why we have a problem in today's society of men not respecting women, Because some of them are stupid af lmao.
I know your momma didn’t raise you to talk about women like that, “Edwin”…
Shoe store fake socks or pannyhoes.. perfect every time...
@@Ramo0781 great idea! Whatever helps.
Shake it up lmao the incompetence of everyday people blows my mind
It was mixed at the store and then again before I poured it! I do hope to one day not be an incompetent everyday person and more like you! Trying my best to get there!
Bro some people are just dumb as hell and don't get anything done correctly. Also woman so that doesn't help nothing.
It's a wamen lol
Did you mix?
It was mixed at the store and again before I used it.
@@layersofgracedesigns9351 You're supposed to mix it yourself. ???
Just mix it better that’s just more paint…😅
It was mixed at the store and again before I used it.
@@layersofgracedesigns9351 That's not how that works

@@nikoliwilliams3721 bro only read half of the reply
I redo furniture never seen this stuff before and i use only water based products THANK YOU THANK THANK YOU❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So then just stain and then varnish after that?
@@tonyz6421 after the 180 grit, you can lightly hand sand with the direction of the wood and add stain!
@@layersofgracedesigns9351 ok, thanks 👍🏼
teamwork? Isb (comment)❤️❤️❤️❤️
Well, it looks like shit
@@frankiebouchard2885 a work in progress usually do!
Very good video! Just the facts, no theatrics . . I could get used to that. Question, what do you use for the application rag? Is that cheesecloth?
@@swbccs thank you for your kindness! In that video I used a lint free cloth. Since making this video, I typically pour the wipe on poly in a plastic container and used a high quality foam brush to apply it. It makes it go on thicker and self leveling better. If I wanted a thin polished layer, I would used the same applicator as a French polish. Which is made of cheesecloths bound together.
What wood conditioner do you recommend with wipe on poly?
@@LinHowe-lz8rj we do not typically use wood conditioner before applying polyurethanes. Wood conditioner is just extremely thinned out polyurethane so it isn’t needed. Some refinishers use it prior to…to eliminate raised grained but since we sand between every finish, we choose not to use it. It is up to the refinisher and their style The brand I recommend is @oldmasters
Makes me anxious to watch you pouring out of the tin onto your piece. Also working from front to back seems counter intuitive with you leaning over your work. Not convinced but thanks nonetheless.
dubai country working
Sir this job
What paint is this?
It is Called Command by Benjamin Moore. Color is alabaster white
Argh 😩
Can’t figure out what it says 👀
The brand is Old Masters. It is a water based polyurethane
Thanks. Appreciated.
You are very welcome!
I'm not able to get the new drawer bracket for the slide to go into the metal slide. What do I do?
You may need a different size or it needs to be forced. You can use a razor blade and shave some of the plastic off to make it fit. Also, make sure the metal is not bent inward. That can keep it from going in the slot. Hope this helps
@@layersofgracedesigns9351 I think I'll have my husband take over! The new ones are the same size as the broken one so as you mentioned he may need to use his rubber mallet....
Didn't need the husband after all! I did it because he couldn't! 😂😂
Great!

I just bought a chest of drawers from a thrift store. The drawers wasn't sitting right. This video is so helpful, from where to purchase to how to install. New subscriber here, I'm going to need all the help that I can get!! Thank you for sharing your expertise 😊.
You are very welcome. Thank you for your kind words. I need to start making more videos. 😃
Thank for explaining this clearly and not rambling on and on! Straight to the point! I love it!
You are very welcome!
Will this product streak no matter how you apply it?
As long as you get an even coat on your surface, streaking should be minimal to none. Also, you will need to apply 3-5 coats. Sometimes the few first coats may streak due to the wood soaking in the product, but your final coats should not
Is the technique different for vertical surfaces?
Yes in general it is the same technique for a vertical. I just wouldn’t pour it on and would do it thinner so it doesn’t drip!
I want to see a video where those are replaced with something better than those
The upgrade would be to remove the current runners and replace with a wood to wood setup. Next time I do this, I will video and post it!
@@layersofgracedesigns9351 I meant with something like a different mechanism. Like a soft close. I’ve been trying to find a video of that but can’t find one. My glides keep braking.
@@roberto.gallegos Understood! You can get the soft glide drawer slides for cabinets and put on the side of the drawers instead but it really is going to be dependent on the drawer you are working with! I would search cabinet soft close ball bearing glides. I will check my stock and see if I have something I can do this on and make a video!
Thank you so much I need to fix the drawes off of a funiture piece that I had puchassed off of facebook marketplace. I don't want my father to feel like I only call him to help me repair stuff so this is a lifesaver
You are welcome! Happy we could help!
I’m an OSU guy and just randomly found this video
Go Pokes!
It's funny that I found this post because I just painted this exact same shelf in Dixie Belles Bunker Blue. Found it on Marketplace last year for $40 and painted it for my office. It even has the exact same knobs on the cabinet doors, that I almost changed out, but ended up loving how the brass looked against the blue.
Great video I love the quick transformation. What product are you using in the specific video? Please let me know as I’m ready to decide between raw wood dining table top with wipe on poly or stain or this product that your using (mystery product 😂) thank you
This is just wipe on poly. The color is the natural wood tone for this species of wood!
HELP! I've watched your video, along with several others, to learn about wipe on poly techniques. I'm restoring vintage speakers from the early 80's and so far I've been able to refinish all three vertical sides with ease using similar techniques using wipe on poly (satin) but the top of the speaker has been an absolute nightmare. I've removed and redone these top surfaces 4-5 times now because once I get beyond 2-3 coats i start getting this white film or fog across the surface and I can't figure what's causing it. I'm not sure if it's due to temperature difference than the vertical sides, the cloth that I'm using which is a cut up white t-shirt. I just can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Do we need to use any kind of sanding sealer prior to the poly application?
You can to help reduce raised grain on your first coat. We just apply this first and smooth sand between every additional coat.
your putting it on too thick
