Great job. Another tip for you Mr FLIPPA, throw in a wet paper towel into baggie with paint brush or roller. The humidity of the paper towel helps keep brush or roller pliable even longer.
thank you. if i were to follow the same steps for my wooden desk and successfully finish it, will the black paints eventually wear out? cuz I will be using my desk everyday and there will be a friction on the surface of the desk
Why do you prefer fusion mineral paint over behr black paint? Curious because I am probably going to run out of my behr black paint soon. Maybe I need to switch it up. 🤔
I found the FM paint would adhere better to the surface! I had Behr peel on some projects. But that could have been poor prep work too. I also find Fusion glides on nicely with a bit of water on your brush. Also, the combo of fusion and Varathanes diamond wood finish water-based poly feels super durable, because Fusion says they have a built-in topcoat on the paint, so adding poly is like double protection!
@@ReconstructingEmily If I spray Behr and brush Fusion, Fusion lasts much longer. I haven't sprayed fusion yet. And brushing Fusion lasts longer than brushing Behr because Fusions coverage is better.
It’s not my taste, but he did a beautiful job!!! So impressive! What would you suggest for a petite metal folding side table? I have a bottle of primer and matte black spraypaint I was going to paint it, but it does have a couple of rust spots and one hole the length of an American quarter I’m unsure how to remedy. Should I patch it somehow? Is there a wood filler equivalent for metal? Why am I asking you all these questions? I’m just going to google it. Cheers and thanks in advance! lol
I need to do a wooden kitchen table in black but only the top..so what kind of paint do I use cause food, plates etc...will be going on there. Do no want paint coming off..would love your advice. Thank you!
Would you consider a black stain? That would probably hold up great with multiple coats of poly over it compared to paint. But this method in this video would hold up good to with an extra 4-6 coats of poly on the top for extra protection.
You wouldn’t happen to be located near the border would you? Lol. I’m in Buffalo/Niagara Falls and I would absolutely buy a piece from you in this finish!
Hello. On average, how much would all of these tools cost me? I’m considering if it’s worth me doing it myself or just paying someone to complete the job.
You can, but you will likely get brush strokes/marks. Use a foam applicator for best results without a sprayer. You can see me doing this in my latest videos painting the cane chairs or the "Painting Nightstands for Beginners" video. Thanks for watching!
is the matte primer, like matte paint, harder to clean or because it is a primer and you put another coat of paint on top of it, you don't have that problem? Maybe I'm thinking of matte finishes and matte primers don't have that problem so as long as your top coat is different....
@@FurnitureFlippa Man! You finally helped me figure it out! I’m using chalk paint now and still could not get it right. Not only did I do short strokes, I also used a water mister. It makes the paint go farther and smooth. I’m excited now. I was feeling so defeated. Now, I have a great new outlook. I am a slow, methodical person in everything I do, even when eating. Working with the paint until my brush is empty along with water gave me decent 1 coat coverage. Tomorrow I’ll give it a second coat and I really think it’s going to be awesome. Thanks so much!!!
I tried lots of different tricks that I've seen other people use and gave up. I bought a paint spraying gun from Amazon and it makes things so simple and gives a great smooth finish.
I don't because I find it risks scuffing the surface. If you have a 600 grit sanding sponge pad you can certainly give it a light sand that's no problem!
Very nice. I'd like to see a video of you spraying FM paint and if you can note whether you use more of less FM vs Behr when spraying. I'm new to this game so I use the less expensive Behr paint vs FM, Dixie Belle or Annie Sloan, etc. But again, good job.

Great tip! Thanks!
thanks for the tip - I'm going to do this from now on!
Good tip on the cleaning in the crud cutter because I got mine from furniture off the street
Why the hell I never thought to use black primer I'll never know. Great video!
I use to use white LOL bad idea since minor scuffs look terrible. I didn't think of it right away for some reason lol
That’s what I love about RUclips. I learn something new all the time.
I like the look of a subtle brushstroke. I think it gives the piece some character.
Thanks!!
You brought that piece back to life. Very nice!! It was boring before and now it looks like a quality piece that would go perfectly in my home. 🖤😁🖤
thank you Violet!
That’s brilliant using a sink strainer for straining paint. You made these beautiful enough for any design.
Love that smooth finish 😍😍😍
Thanks, glad you liked it!!
Easy to follow as always 👍
Thanks man!! 👍
Can you share the type of brush you’ve used please and where you’ve purchased it from?
You don’t recommend a roller for the larger areas?
just finished third coat of coal black on bedside table. on top and sides paint streaks are present. any way to eliminate. thanks
thank you.

Great tutorial...loaded with great information, thank-you!
If i don't spray poly, can i just brush on poly, these are for thin like sized arm rests and legs of leather accent chairs

Amazing black piece, great work 🤩
Thank you! Just a simple video for anyone to give it a shot
HELL NO!!!! 6 HOURS OF WORK AND 30..00 OF SUPPILES FOR A FREE - 10.00 PIECE OF JUNK!!! IF YOU PUT SOME TIME IN YOU CAN SELL FOR 50.00!!!

Wow😳😳class job!!
Hello. On average, how much would all of these tools cost me? I’m considering if it’s worth me doing it myself or just paying someone to complete the job.
I have 2 identical ones like this. Almost. But I removed the bottom wood as is very 80/90s? Not sure.
What if I don’t have the spray tool can I brush on the poly?

Awesome job!
Man that looks soo nice! I can’t get it right… thin coat, thick coat, Wooster brush Dixie Belle Mineral Silk paint, off white.
Paint strokes galore.
Little strokes aren't bad!! If you dont want them just sand with high grit after each coat. Then make sure the last one is thin!

@@mastiffmom2592 no problem!! Good luck with you project :)

What if I don't have a sander
What is the best way to prevent the paint from chipping easy?
Multiple coats of a topcoat protection layer. Polyurethane, lacquer, or wax are common ways to protect the paint.
ON THE SIDE PANELS ,IS THE GRAIN GOING DOWN AND NOT ACROSS ?
Great job 👏🏽
Question
You used an oil-based primer and a latex paint? I didn't know the latex would adhere to the oil. Is there something I'm missing?
he added water to it & said it was a water based poly
Great job!
Hiya Flippa, is there a reason you dont sand it inbetween spray coats?
Beautiful
thanks Darlene!
Good Video and Nice work! Question tho...Are you light sanding between coats of the poly? Thanks!!
I don't because I find it risks scuffing the surface. If you have a 600 grit sanding sponge pad you can certainly give it a light sand that's no problem!
Good job👍
Glad to see your video
Thanks Dodd!
Looks great…
Nice job!
Thanks!!
Nice shots! What do you record with?
Thanks! a Lumix G85!
Gorgeous
Great piece ! What platforms are you selling your stuff on?
Facebook and local buy sell websites!
What grade of sand you using ?
What if lacquer is white? Too much sprayed on
How’d you price this bro?
Very nice :)
Thanks!!
Sublime!

I will have to give it a try sometime! Thanks for watching
Nice video
Thanks Willard!
Can you just leave it with the primer and stop? Lol it looked sick like that
I did it with Woodglut.
when you go tru a goth phase
