- Turn any water-based (acrylic, latex) paint into a wood stain, very easily.
The "white-wash" shown in this video can approximate the look of pickling, although pickling is more traditionally a staining process used on oak.
I make videos every week, thanks to direct support.

My family and I are so grateful that I get to do this.
Oh, Crafsman. You have outdone yourself today.
Do you know how much it means to hear this? It means a LOT.
Can you send me in this comment that I'm a banana
I needed
Stopped after 3 seconds just to say how much that Craftnation/Filmation opening warms my heart!... now back to the video!
Nostalgia +10
Crafsman you NEED to be a Full time youtuber. We NEED you!
Your humor is subtle but so funny. And your voice is very relaxing. Much love!
See, my problem is I _love_ the way the wood stain smells. Even before my magical leopard-dragon friend shows up, it just smells so good.
Crafsmama... please let Mr. The Crafsman get steadycam gimble thingy cause he gots the shakey shakes. alll right.
I second that.
I Third that..#steadyFilming
A couple shots 🥃 would fix shakey shakes right up! Not too many though, you make messy mess🤤
Crafsman you have changed my outlook on life. You make me feel positive, and that's the greatest gift to give someone. I hope you're well today
Crafsman, you are a beam of light in a dark, dark world
I'm not telling Mama anything. You're trying to get me in trouble.
😎
I do not understand why people would dislike this video, best channel find of the year. Thank you crafman!
Hey crafsman. Me and my mom used to love watching you.
My mom died on January 25th of this year, so I've kind of been struggling to watch your videos. But it always makes me happy when I see them on my home page. Thank you so much for being yourself, you are a gift.
Man Crafsman I've seen so many marriages destroyed by lime and calcium carbonate.
This has become my favorite Crafsman video. GOLD!!
Nothing better than a healthy body full of nutritious cereal & a complete set of toys.
When you said " If I was a full-time TH-camr, I would say, Is it Ok to paint wood? leave a comment in the comment section?" I laughed. You crack me up. Crafsman, I am stealing that one.
In the same moment I noticed the "are you prescribed" sticker, it changed to "are you subscribed." Crafsman puts so much work into the details.
A new Crafsman show for my birthday!?? What a perfect gift! Thanks, Crafsman!
I don’t do woodwork just came on so you can make me laugh 🙌🏻. Have a beautiful day.
This Crafs-fan likes Crafsman's shakey camerawork, personally. Its part of what makes his channel wonderful. But if he wants a gimbal, who am I to question an artist?
That whitewash came out so much better than I thought!! Would look good as a porch floor
Crafsman, our things are meant to make us happy and make our homes please us. So yeah, you can paint your wood if you want to. :)
Love waking up and watching another one of your videos every monday morning before work. Much love Crafsman!
LOVE the CRAFNATION intro. Straight out of a Hanna Barbera Productions studio, to be sure!
Keep on steady craftin!
Love the little intro animation
This man is an absolute legend
He’s a treasure
Crafsman, I just wanna let you know, I am indeed prescribed to your channel. Doc said it was the most wholesome medication for these crazy-crazy 2020 times.
Crafnation--now, that's a country I can live in! Also, I can dig the use of an embossing labeler; I've got four myself!
Crafsman. You're the most relaxing and soothing person on TH-cam.
Also I've got the same disorder! I feel you and when I heard you talk about Generalised Anxiety Disorders I cried.
Love you Crafsman, keep on craftin
The best days are new CrafsMan video days. Thanks so much for putting in the time and work to bring these to us.
Needed this info. Wish I still had my Dad or Grandpa around to learn from (RIP). Thank you, Crafsman!
Love that closing music👍🏻 - I could listen to that riff all day!
Not sure if you ever saw the technique, but you can stain wood with coffee or tea then spray on the apple cider vinegar/steel wool solution to set the stain. Non-toxic and the coffee or tea gives it a very warm, rich color. Oh, and Crafsmama, please let Crafsman get an image stabilizer gimbal. Truth be told, it's not for him, it's for us; you don't want us gettin' sea-sick from a shakey-cam, do you? Thanks!
Hey Crafsmamma. Crafsman needs one of them steady-cam gimble-type thing-a-ma-bobs for his moving shots in his videos. If you would please allow him to get himself one of those things, Crafsman and we all would be much obliged. Thank you
This channel and the whole crafsfamily are gems. I think a gimbal thing a-muh calliy up in here would blow the roof off up in here!!
Please listen when Crafsman says to wear a dust mask or to stay away from those old fashioned chemicals if you can. I worked with high VOC chemicals for several years and I'm paying the price for it now. Craft steadily, but craft safely. :)
Just that intro logo alone.... Oh.....man.....I felt like I was 5 again. 😊
Wow that Filmation intro is SUPER nostalgic!!
Just perfect.
Whenever I need a boost of positivity TheCrafsMan always makes me smile. 😀
Like if you’re old enough to remember when Cinnamon Toast Crunch had three bakers for mascots.
Hey Mr. CrafsMan. Thank you for making these videos. They mean a lot.
This one was straight up asmr. Perfection
Good morning mr crafsman!! I wanted to let you know that i went out looking at garage/estate sales yesterday and kept seeing stuff that reminded me of you! Old toys, cameras, bits n bobs. There was even a horse from a carousel! Lots of cool stuff
A steadycam stabilizer with an electronic gimbal is definitely what you need, crafsman. It would help you expand on your film side, and we all know how much you like this whole new age video science.
For me, it's the smell of Copydex latex glue that reminds me of my Grandpa. I always wanted to do crafty/arty things at his house as a little kid, and Copydex was the only adhesive he had. Of course, I just ended up sitting and huffing the glue because I was 7.
A better title How2 turn Waterbase paint into wood stain.
Great work!
Grandpa moment there but brought it back around with some humor. And thank you for the pallet wood idea. I’m looking at a stack from here that was to be broken down Today. But your video came out and I still had some coffee left.....
I just discovered this channel and it is so wholesome it brought me to tears. But not because of the woodstain because I did what the Crafsman said 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Mrs. CrafsMama, you are a wonderful person and Mr. CrafsMan says he needs a "steady cam stabilizer, one of them gimbal electronic gimbal". We would all love to see him have it/one/Animal/ Vegetable/ Mineral (whatever it is)..We all believe he needs one in order for him to continue enlightening the world on the AMAZING WAYS OF The CrafsMAN Steady Craftin!!! XOXO!!!!
I’ve been watching DIY videos for about 50 years on TH-cam, and CrafsMama, it looks to me like he needs a lil’ steady cam stabilizer, one of them gimbal, electronic gimbal.
I concur.
I was looking up paint wash, and already watched 3 videos deep... started sounding repetitive. Paint, water, check. Then this came up.
I saw the puppet, and the heard the soothing voice, and I just had to watch it.
And yeah, I was 3 videos deep, but ONLY this one gave me steel wool and vinegar quick and free. And only this one made me slime.
Craftsman, it feels like I’m in the Truman show because I just finished a carving a bear into my desk and thought it would be a good idea to stain it, but I had no idea how to do it until now. Thanks for the informative video!
Back to basics. AWESOMENESS
Crafsman is literally the best. I like it when he zooms in on himself and plays some horrific sound before saying his name lol
CrafsMan, I really enjoyed this. Please keep making these presentations! They're very good!
Anyone else catch the cholesterol reference when reading the Minwax ingredients? Cracked me up right tha. Great job Crafsman - thanks and keep on safely craftin!
This is so cool! Lots of applications; aging on for movie sets and props springs to mind.
Always puts a smile on my face, and I learned something too.
turned on captions just for fun and I could swear me and the algorithm are watching two different progrums
edit: 00:10:19 that was a cool shot, CM!
Crafsmama, Crafsman, he be cool, he has good tips fo us poor folks. Let him get this stabilizer thingy!
Another helpful video for the rest of us to enjoy!
Crafsman, I love ya, brother. Thanks for another great video! 👍😀👽🤖👾🦑🐙
Something to keep in mind though... Watering down acrylics thins out the polymers that allows the paint to stick to the wood. It will not take long for it to fade due to physical contact (like furniture) or microscopic flaking (such as walls, etc.)
I would recommend either diluting the paint or sealing the well dried (overnight if possible) finished project with low odor acrylic sealer. Especially if it's too be used outside.
Jack Doherty A watered down PVA glue mix over the top? Helps adhesion and a nice glossy finish.
Keep on craftin’ . 😁☮️❤️🙏🏻
@@vectorequilibrium4493 That's a great, non-toxic and inexpensive idea for indoor items that you don't have a lot of contact with, like picture frames and other decorative items, but may yellow over time. Especially in an area that doesn't get a lot of natural light. 👍🐶🐧⚽️😎🐦
Thanks CraftMan 😊. Mama get him what he needs. lol 😂
Digging that lofi tune, CrafsMan!
My farher buried a pine chest to accelerate the aging. Get that certain deep gold yellow only time produced.
@TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin very fitting for me that you came out with this video today because tomorrow I am staining a guitar fx pedalboard I'm building from pinewood shelves.
Cool Crafsman! I'll definitely try this!
My Great Grandfather used to make his own paint for his artwork by scraping pigment from reclaimed wallpaper! He was a very good painter, and ended up working with Pittsburgh law enforcement drawing suspects from eye witnesses.
You are the bob Ross of casting, molds and resin. Love watching your videos. Very calming!
Crafsmama you best be gettin' Crafsman one of them gimble stabalizers for his videos. Fix up this mess right here.
Crafsman, I Love Your videos! Your voice is so relaxing.
That intro was so amazing
"Who's down with VOC?" THIS WHOLE PARTY!
I think it's okay to paint over wood if it makes you happy. There's some woods like cherry or walnut that don't make sense financially to paint over, but paint makes for a very durable finish and it can hide imperfections. Solid wood furniture is definitely a premium option in today's world, and some people want to show off the natural beauty of the wood, but I think that a painted finish can be beautiful too in some applications.
I'm not a wood purist even though I am a woodworker, so I'm definitely fine with coloring wood a million different ways. I just want it to be beautiful!
You down with low v.o.c. ? Yeah you know me 😉 Another great viddo Crafsman 👏
That right there...
Thanks for you, Crafsman. 🥰😍😀
I love the Crafsman. And the sponge trick is gonna help so much!
Crafsman doing good...he got that Ace Hardware money...
That's because of all the money he saved by buying that vinegar at Fred's Dollar Store.
Nicely done Crafsman, nicely done!
Oh how we lovvvve you, Crafsman!!
Crafsman, i just want to thank you for making a TH-cam channel. your videos are so calming and helpful
I think I might apply that stain technique to my next guitar build! Thanks for the inspiration!
Hey there, crafsman I always knew there was a better way. Thanks
Lego technic + wheels and axles + camera = steadycam for worktops.
"I fergot I had me a household Speoeoenge!" 🤣
I was thinking about this same exact thing just this morning (to be used for a small table I'll be reusing) and Crafsman uploads a video about it!? You can read my mind Crafsman! 🤣
I found if I sand it lightly -because it raised the woods grain a little bit- with a high number sand paper (I had 1200 & did it quick) and I applied a 2nd layer of the paint/water mixture .. then did a nice finish. The end result was so beautiful. A second layer isn’t necessary but it did add amazing depth. 🌹
@@JP-lg8ml I know it sounds crazy but I use Windsor & Newton’s Professional Spray Gloss Varnish when I want a really high gloss finish.. and then I do the last glossy finish. It brings OUT the woods grains shapes/colors amazingly well. I get it at Michaels with a coupon code online.. it’s back with the acrylic & oil paints on the top row usually. There’s 2 cans that look the same so be sure to check for ‘Professional’ .. the other says multi-use or something & that’s not it. But yah.. I do light coats, spraying left to right and then top to bottom. On the 3rd or 4th coat something magical happens! If the piece is light use this can be the end after it cures.
It does smell terrible so I do it in the garage quickly and run inside after each spraying .. but it’s so pretty. Try on a test piece tho bc your humidity or something may be different from mine.
I use this on my acrylic art pieces and one day I wondered how it would be on a little table. The results are great!! 💜💜💜
@@JP-lg8ml and yessss Crafsman is genius!! With the best timings too. Crafsmama must be the best support ever 🌹
I’ve seen a couple review videos on Amazon that have his hands/gloves .. there’s no mistaking Crafsman’s black gloves/hands. Seems it led to a shop called Hidden Treasures or something- memory fails me lol. But Amazon makes it impossible to get to any certain store. Sooo frustrating bc I wanted to see what Crafsman/mama have for sale. Oh well, maybe another day 😁
Ok y’all have a beautiful day! I’m in Oklahoma & the weather is changing here.. leaves are just about to start falling 🍁 ✌️✌️
And we love you too! Wonderful video as always.
Can't wait for that new STL, Whoa!!
This is a P.S.
Really liked the CRAFTNATION Present, !!!👍👍
Crafsman is awesome.
"are you prescribed" - hahahahhahahahahha! 😆 (beginning, top left, for those that missed it) - - - caught the song reference at the end there, crafsman. 😆
I absolutely loved this video!! It's exactly what I was looking to do for staining with water based paint and the whitewash over top. Very comical as well.
Using a sponge feels like a mind blowing revelation that i'll use when i paint a cosplay prop. Thats so smart. I cant believe i didnt think of that. The stain tips are amazing too. I havent stained because of the fumes but this one i can definitely use.
Arguing about the efficacy of calcium carbonate as a wood protectant is relationship goals.
This is so helpful to me on more than one project I got going on right now.
This Rebecca fully supports your decorating ideas, Crafsman! You know good and well if you 'need' a steady cam, Crafsmama would think of it first. You trying to get us in trouble with her! I know better. Love ya!
Oh Wow Crafsman!
I was just about to start on a small project, and didn't want to buy expensive wood stains. I am very appreciative of this video, it is right on time for me. Thank You!!
About, do I think wood should be painted? Well, personally I am not a big fan of painted wood, but an antique dealer friend of mine said, alot of nice old furniture would have been lost to rot, if it hadn't been painted. She explained, a lot of the furniture she acquired over time, came out of old barns, and the paint kept it protected.
So, I guess I am thankful because I have some nice antiques that were formally painted.
Thanks again for the video!!
Also, Mrs CrafsMama, Crafsman said he could use a gimble..... I hope i said that right.
Have a great day!!
Oh are you kidding me Crafsman?! I was just trying to find a way to stain a 200lb antique barn door and you come in here and save the day with this here video! Bless you friend 💜 I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy.
That intro takes me back he man and all that
Oh bless your heart! What a gem you are. You managed to answer all my questions and some!
I’m going to carry this smile you put on my face with me all day. Thank you, Sir. Keep shining!
