Here's a step-by-step guide on how to stain glaze painted furniture:
Materials you'll need:
- Clean, dry furniture
- Sandpaper (120-grit and 220-grit)
- Tack cloth
- Wood stain
- Glazing medium
- Paintbrush or sponge
- Rags
- Polyurethane (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the furniture. The first step is to prepare the furniture for staining. This involves cleaning the furniture to remove any dirt or dust, and then sanding it to smooth out any rough spots. Start with 120-grit sandpaper, and then move to 220-grit sandpaper.
- Apply the wood stain. Once the furniture is prepared, you can apply the wood stain. Use a paintbrush or sponge to apply the stain evenly to the furniture, following the grain of the wood. Allow the stain to sit for the amount of time specified on the can, and then wipe off any excess stain with a rag.
- Apply the glazing medium. The next step is to apply the glazing medium. Glazing medium is a clear liquid that helps to create a smooth, even finish. Apply the glazing medium to the furniture with a paintbrush or sponge, and allow it to sit for the amount of time specified on the can. Wipe off any excess glazing medium with a rag.
- Sand the furniture. Once the glazing medium has dried, you can sand the furniture to smooth out any rough spots. Start with 220-grit sandpaper, and then move to 320-grit sandpaper.
- Apply polyurethane (optional). If you want to protect the finish of your furniture, you can apply a coat of polyurethane. Polyurethane is a clear, protective finish that will help to prevent the stain from fading or chipping. Apply the polyurethane with a paintbrush or sponge, and allow it to dry according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Tips
- Use a light touch when sanding the furniture. You don't want to remove the stain completely. The goal is to smooth out the finish and create a more even surface.
- Don't apply too much glazing medium. Too much glazing medium can make the finish look cloudy or streaky. Apply just enough glazing medium to create a smooth, even surface.
- Be patient. Staining glazed painted furniture is a process that takes time. Don't rush the process, and allow each step to dry completely before moving on to the next.
Staining glazed painted furniture is a great way to add depth and character to your pieces. It's a relatively simple process that can be completed in a few hours, and it can make a big difference in the overall look of your furniture.
