Antiquing Glaze

Love the products!

Antique glaze was used after cracked gesso, and two coats of milk paint for these green kitchen cabinets. The antique glaze is not as strong of a formula as the original antique glaze I used over 5 years ago. This may be a good thing, because if left to sit too long in one place (wrong place) it couldn’t be corrected. However, I would have preferred a darker glaze on these green cabinets, but I’m still very pleased with how they turned out. Years ago, I ran into trouble with glaze variation while milk painting blue bathroom cabinets. I ran out of antique glaze in the middle of my project. The reorder didn’t match the same level of stain I used, no matter how much glaze I doused it with. Fortunately, the darker glaze was on the front, and the lighter on the inside. I’ll include pictures to compare. Please consider offering a darker antique glaze as well as the light.

I used the Antiquing Glaze on my first piece which was a French Commode Chest that I had purchased years ago at an estate sale. The Antiquing Glaze made the process easy and I love the patina!
