Hi, I’m a little late but I’ve just watched this video and I have a question about the Feast Watson Limewash that you used. Specifically where you mention giving this a wipe down after the first coat. As this is water based, did you dampen down a cloth and then wipe down ? Is the process the same as wiping down any of the Pureco stains for instance ? The reason I ask is that I have just bought a tin of the same stuff, with a tint added called Natural Buttercup, as I’m hoping this will give me what I’m looking for in my attempts so far (failed 🙁) at staining the ugly miss grained cedar wood on my TV unit that I’m in the process of updating. Cheers Rob.
Hi rob, The Feast Watson Liming white That I used Is not water based it is oil based. On our staging wall I stained a few boards with the Pureco stains which are water based, then once they dried I applied the liming white to the entire lot. Because this wall was so big I applied the liming white in sections then after a few minutes I wiped off the the excess with a cloth. I did not dampen the cloth. I would recommend instead of the liming white to try purecos stain and glaze in the colour whisper. This is water based and a lot more forgiving then the oil based stuff. Therefore a lot easier to use. I hope that all made sense. I use the Pureco whisper stain in quite a few of my videos. The ugly duckling video shows how to use it from start to finish. Good luck, let me know how you go. 😊😊
Thanks for the quick reply 👍 I have previously tried Pureco Whisper but found the results unsatisfactory due to the very strong irregular grain patterns of the Cedar and also because of the multiple defects in the surface of the cedar which required filler. The Feast Watson Lime wash brochure I have in front of me mentions clean up with water, yet the actual tin I bought was definitely oil based ? Hence my confusion. Did you use a sealer as well ?
Hi rob. I didn’t use a sealer on my staging wall but I would recommend using a sealer on furniture. You could also try using a wood primer before applying the liming white. This should give you a more even finish. You could also water down some white paint and try white washing. 😊😊
This turned out so beautiful, love that staging wall
Thanks so much 😊
It looks amazing. Saw your use of it at the end. So professionally done.
It looks GREAT!
Thanks jaquie 🙏
Just what I needed to know! Thanks for making this video 😍
Glad you liked it. 😊
We just built a moving staging wall a week or two ago- but mine doesn’t have wheels so now I’m jealous! Great job 👏🏻
Lol just pop some feet on it. 😊
This looks great
Thanks so much Carol 😊
I can’t wait to see you use it, now! :)
Aww thanks grace xx
I love it❣
Thank you 🙏
You may want to consider making this a reversible staging wall by finishing the backside in a darker color for lighter furniture. Well done!
That’s a great idea thanks for sharing. I might just do that! 😊❤️
I think it would be to heavy to move around even with wheels on it
@@kathleenhernandez3772 The reverse side could be done in a fabric versus wood. Just a thought.
great idea!
Looks so good guys! Just saw you're at 800 subs too, 🎊 ❤
Thanks sweetheart xxxx. ❤️
Great idea and we’ll made 😄
Thanks so much Donna 🙏
I think it's pretty
Thanks Deana 😊

The white board on the bottom is very distracting
Thanks for the feedback 😊
