    Just did this to a nightstand I had. Sanded it to bare wood,stained it and then quickly brushed on chalk paint.. Finished it with a coat of polycrylic (since i had it laying around) and as you say she's a rippa !! Added some nice black knobs on it and it is a huge 180 from what it looked like. It was for the girlfriend's makeup crap and i have to setup her vanity after we finished redoing our room. Gotta keep my baby's mom happy.

    Love the results on that mate with the steel wool you’ve made an ebonising fluid. I have a jar in the workshop I made months ago it reacts with the tannins in the wood so something like oak changes colour before your eyes. Another good thing to try is making chalk paint with a bit of emulation and a good helping of talc it gives a great effect. 👌🏻

    That looks keen!! I’ve been on the fence with how to achieve the the look, but you nailed it...myself I’m interested in doing a wood/metal coffee table, but the wood part has always had me buggered. I actually feel a bit more confident now. Thank you sir....one last question sorry, I’m more a welder than a wood fella, dose that last surface coat last for a typical coffee table or coffee table use? Enjoyed the video and learnt something new. Thank you.

      PiDGE IAM use a durable varnish to seal it but don't do thick coats. It may be worth using a clear wax polish over the varnish in my opinion. This can be applied using a cloth or brush and buffed when the polish has dried a bit. You can experiment with stained polishes too.

      @diyforknuckleheads  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Gday Pidge....Yeah that varnish would do the trick. Polyuretane also works very well. Just make sure it's 110% dry and hard before you use it. 👍👍😁🇦🇺
