Thank you so much for this amazingly helpful video ! I really appreciate the comparisons of different finishes on various woods. You have just given me answers and inspiration for my project.
Fabulous video. Thank you! I’m wondering if the diluted paint method would work with the all in one paints intended for furniture. I may experiment with this as I have some leftover from a recent project. 😊
Hi! Yes, it definitely will! I like to do a clear topcoat afterward because diluting the paint does take away some of the natural "topcoating" abilities of an all in one paint. Other than that, it will work perfectly!
This video was so informative! I'm about to white wash a center match pine ceiling. Unfortunately, some of wood needed to be replaced, so there is older yellow pine and newer white pine. I'll have to experiment with the wash to match them. Also, if the wood has a lot of knots, should I dilute primer instead of paint to keep the knots from bleeding through? Or maybe that's part of the look. Not sure.
I have never tried a primer wash but I think it would work! Zinsser white shellac primer would work for that I bet. If not, the knots will definitely yellow over time through the white, which is a look some people want, but if you don't, do the primer wash (and then let me know how it goes)! Also, you could stain the white pine before washing, or use an aged wood accelerator to try to match the wood color before washing.
You can finish with a clear coat over all of them which would add durability but wouldn't change the color in any way as long as you use a water based topcoat. I wouldn't recommend topcoating with oil based topcoat as it yellows over time and will make the whitewash look pretty gross.
It's Rustoleum Chalked paint. Full disclosure - I actually don't like this paint for regular painting of projects because it's thick and stinky. BUT, it works fine for whitewashing since it's so watered down (which is why I used it for this project bc I was trying to get rid of it 😆)
I was hoping that you would remove the painters tape and allow the viewers to see exactly the difference of tones, in all the methods. I was really looking for that comparison, sadly you did not do it.
No apologies necessary, but thank you. I found your video informative, I personally would have loved to see all three at one time, either with or without the painters tape. I just now finished my first coat of whitewash to an Ikea Tarva bedside table. It looks good but I want to add another layer. I'm going to put cane on the front of the drawer, held by a really cute wooden trim I have whitewashed, it will have a beautiful gold pull not their wooden round one and I'm changing their wooden legs, I am going to add gold hair pin legs. I'm loving the whitewash! Thanks for responding! :) . @@RefreshLiving
Very interesting video!! Unfortunately, l can't read your post : I reach a page saying that I've been blocked😢... Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I leave in France...could you solve my problem? ( I can't read your block neither)
I am so sorry. I have had many people tell me this (all live in Europe, and quite a few in France). I need to ask my site tech about this, because I have no idea what's going on! Thanks for letting me know
Flat, eggshell or even satin will work. I like the look of flatter sheens on a whitewash, but it doesn't need to be. In my video, I was using flat paint
Thank u for your response! I do have one more question maybe u know . I was looking online for the answer i can’t seem to find it , my wooden frame is kinda dried out I was going to use an wood oil before I painted it , u think I should do it before or after? Not sure if it be too brittle before painting. Thank u !

I'm so glad it was helpful!!
That was sooo helpful, thank you. I was very surprised to discover I preferred the oil stain best. Thanks
Awesome video and such helpful information ! thank you
Great video. Thank you for all the comparisons.

@@RefreshLiving That’s great news. Thanks 🙏
Very informative session. Thanks so much for your thoroughness.
Glad it was helpful!

@@RefreshLiving awesome advice. I'll do some test samples on a few pieces and let you know how it turns out.
Excellent presentation! Thank you very much!
You're very welcome!
Thank you!
Thank you for this video! It was really helpful :)
Great! I'm glad to hear it was helpful. 😁
Very helpful, excellent video😁 thank you
I'm so glad it was helpful!!
What would happen if you finished OVER the white wash? Like for the paint wash or oil stain method?
You can finish with a clear coat over all of them which would add durability but wouldn't change the color in any way as long as you use a water based topcoat. I wouldn't recommend topcoating with oil based topcoat as it yellows over time and will make the whitewash look pretty gross.
for the first method - what type of paint is that? Thanks! :)
It's Rustoleum Chalked paint. Full disclosure - I actually don't like this paint for regular painting of projects because it's thick and stinky. BUT, it works fine for whitewashing since it's so watered down (which is why I used it for this project bc I was trying to get rid of it 😆)

Sorry I didn't show it on the video. I did remove, but just didn't record it! So seeing the white next to the original wood would have been helpful?

Method #3 regular white paint is it flat ?
