I would like to redo my bed, which I paid a lot of money for. Yes, it is made of MDF, but it looks like wood (sort of). It is laminated with a wood-like layer. The frame has been through some wear and tear. Some spills have caused the MDF to swell. I know I need to sand it now, but since the MDF has a layer of laminate, how would you go about it? The color is walnut, but I would like to change it to grayish whitewash.
Hi. I know you said that the first and dark glaze layers are a combination of the two paints, but I can't figure out if you also add glaze to that mixture. I might have missed something. Could you verify what (an what proportions of what) goes into your glaze layers? Thank you.
I loved your tutorial. This is the best faux wood technique I've seen and looks amazing. I'm wondering how to continue the pattern when the planks are long..the whole length of the table. Thank you so much. It was explained so clearly
I used this tutorial. I wish the over glaze wasn’t so light. The results on my cabinet made it look way too light and it missed the warm wood tone. Wish I would have realized before I finished. I would have mixed less white in.
Brittany , I have one question on the top coat. I tried the MYOB on my first table and did not like the shiny finish. I cleaned it 3 times with clean slate trying to remove it. But then had to sand it back a little to try and knock down shiny areas. I applied the matte sealer but still see shiny areas where the glaze went on. How do you remedy if you use the toning glaze in areas then want a matte finish?
❤great result! You were ahead of the game by 3 years!
I watched so many "fake wood on MDF" DIYs... Your's the best. It looks awesome! Thank you for this tutorial. ❤

put a few nail holes in the rim of paint can you will never have paint collect , and you can have a nice seal on your lid
Wow! Just what I was looking for. Awesome tutorial❤

What is used for the glaze layer after first 2 coats of paint? You just reference "glaze" but never state the recipe or product. Thx!!
Definitely a true master in the art, fantastic job, well done, all the best, watchin from the UK.
Thanks for the detailed tutorial I’m going to paint a set of pantry doors to look like white oak so hope it all turns out good 😃

I'm going to modify this so I can do it large scale and my MDF subfloors are getting a bougie makeover! Thank you!
How did they turn out?
Wow this is incredible tutorial ♥️
Fantastic video and great technique. I'm wondering how this will work on a cement ceiling.
What is the recipe for the glaze in step 2?
Do you have a link for all which products you used?
Great video. Thanksn
Kitchen cabinets too? I have the 90's golden oak that I want to refinish in light oak.
i LOVE this😳❤️ did you use an oil based paint all the time?
Amazing
Such a great tutorial in such a small frame size 😩 why doesn't the video fill the screen??
How would you go about doing this technique on a 4 poster bed frame…lightening up dark wood?

it's too bad you didn't film this in high resolution. You should make another video in HD
