I didn’t use a base - if you mean a primer/base. I didn’t use one on this job - not all jobs require a primer - if cleaned well and scuff sanded (prime when concerned about bleed through or adhesion) I always thin my paint and each product will vary as to how much as well as the equipment your using - I suggest getting a viscosity cup and referring to your sprayer manual for timing. This paint is not particularly thick (that will also vary depending on color - some pigments in colors will make the paint thinner or thicker). Thank you so much 😀

@@BorninaBarnBoutique thanks so much for the info 👍🌹

I use the standard tip - I do not typically feel the need to switch them out for water based paints. As for the setting this particular system does not have a numbered setting system - so I couldn’t tell you how it was dialed in - I switch that up depending on the product and piece I’m working on but there is no way for me to tell you a setting number on this one 😀

Thank you - I would definitely wipe back or you may not like the look and it will take forever to dry. I would Layer multiple coats (making sure you allow ample time in between)

@@BorninaBarnBoutique Awesome.. Thank you so much for your response.

Thank you! 😀

Thank you so much!😀

You do realize that most pieces are not made of 100% solid wood through and through. This is a Bassett brand piece (which is a good brand) - but most pieces have some wood veneer and particle board in certain areas of the furniture unfortunately

So most every product paint, stain and topcoat have a dry time and a cure time. This product depending on your climate dries down within 8 hours for re-coating. Cure time for this particular product is a 10 day cure time 😀

Thank you! No you didn’t miss anything. This video was to showcase the repair not the paint process - so there was just a quick segment showing me applying the primer and then there is a segment showing me spray the paint. The painting part was not a focus on this video. I did spray it on (quick segment showing me with the spray gun) 😀 you can absolutely brush and I have many recs for brushes (zibra, staalmeester and cling on brushes are my favs). I also always list out what was used with links too in the show notes/description. Everything is listed there from the paint color to the stains used too. 😀 thank you so much for watching and the nice comments.

Hi! That is my festool ETS-EC 125 orbital sander connected to my festool hepa dust extractor/vac system - love them! amzn.to/3RpHnWU

you can but its meant to be like a stain and showcase the wood grain - it is very sheer :)

I always out all the products in the description below 😀 I used wooden barrel and natural cork

I personally don’t care for this paint - after the video a few years ago I chose to not use again. Streaky can come from the product, the brush and how you may be applying. My rec: try a different paint 😀

You are welcome - I haven’t tried that - I’m not sure how the products will work together - I would suggest trying a test area before going g all in

Thank you! 😀

I would suggest a fresh coat of paint the stain won’t cover the blemishes or scratches as it’s sheer

Yes absolutely

These are the Lilly Moon Paint Gel Stains - you cannot get them at a big box retailer - you can order online or search for a retailer near you on their website -

You are welcome! I do not and I have since moved into a new space - I have a new barn that I work out of - I will put that on the list of videos to do 😀

You could yes and if you grain it - it will help with the slippery factor - check out their website - some amazing projects done with the Retique It products

Yes just go for it! Sometimes that is the only way! 😀

Yes there is a great idea for another video! Thank you 😀

Best bet is a Wood Filler Bondo - super strong and sandable - once painted you will never see the spots

No this product has a durable built in topcoat - that is the finishing oil part of the product

I would test a section- since it’s a stain it is sheer but is buildable

​@@BorninaBarnBoutiqueI think I am going to try this. I also have an espresso piece that I want lighter. However, I don't want to sand it since it is textured.

Not all grain raises terribly but thank you yes I always sand smooth if necessary and with much finer than 180 for sure

Kate Bush!!!

Yes I would clean, scuff sand and prime - I love Lilly moon paint stainblocking primer, I like rustoleum 3 n 1 sandable filler primer, melange stain blocker and there are many more that will work just fine too 😀

Clear shellac works best after sanding to bare wood because it’s a powerhouse at blocking tannins and it’s clear so it won’t alter the color of the wood

I have never used a resin paint - so I’m sorry I cannot provide much feedback in that 😀
