    Vinegar? You said 50/50 Bleach What did you use to mist with Bleach or Vinegar?

    Great tutorial! Just what I wanted to know. Just remember that the bleach solution used to take the backing off of the mirrorr, whenmixed with an ammonia based glass cleaner produces toxic fumes!

  • @ambrepighin8104

    Also, you should clean the bleach off the mirror with water first, mixing windex with bleach can also cause dangerous chemical fumes!

    Shouldn't use windex to clean off bleach. There's amonia in windex. Bleach and amonia make a poisonous gas.. Other than that, great video.

    A tip from an "Old stripper." When applying stripper, applying in one direction, not criss-cross. On wood, apply with the grain, overlapping as little as possible. Always use safety goggles and special chemical protective gloves. This should be done outdoors if at all possible. Indoors use good ventilation. Happy stripping !

    Hi Denisse, I am an old follower for your tutorials but this is the first time I ran into a situation: you said the mix is 50%-50% bleach and water but later on you mentioned vinegar instead of bleach just when you show how the mirror turned out after this spry on process. So maybe it’s a bleach/vinegar mix and no water mix or vinegar instead of the bleach. Maybe even the 3 liquids in a 33% each one? I can wait to do this to a circle mirror so please let me know what is your best advice about the mix recipe. Wish I know how to send you pics of this and other transformation I dared to make thanks your how to tutorials. From Mexico, your work fan,
    Sandrina

    Thank you for this informational tutorial. I need help, when I’m diluting the bleach (Clorox) and spraying it it’s not doing any reaction. I tried to use it non diluted, same, no reaction. Only if I pour it directly onto the mirror with large quantity, this is when it works. But this way I cannot get a subtle effect, only large spots of distressing. Any advice?
