glazing

9 years ago

Newly built bathroom vanity. Want to paint it with latex paint and then glaze with clear glaze. What is the proportion of paint to glaze needed? Is the wiping procedure the same for flat surfaces and the routed areas of the vanity? How should glaze be applied - brush, roller, or what?

This is a question with no "correct" answer!

* You can use a 1:1 ratio, or...
* a 1:97 ratio!
(glaze always being the higher number!)

Just depends on the degree of transparency desired.

Application-
Again...no rules here!
Wiping is the most common.
