Thank you! You give me the courage to tackle some of these projects myself.

@tokyolane 3 года назад

FYI, spoke to AquaCoat and they suggest the final coat sit overnight and then sand within a couple hours of painting final coat. If you final sand and then paint a day or two later, you won't have the same adhesion. I have rec'd lots of great info from your channel. Thank you!

You make this look so easy, I’m a manicurist and I love to paint 🎨 I will totally remember this technique if I ever need to paint cabinets. 🌟

@michaelfederoff3417 2 года назад

I do high-end cab. refinishes and try to use high build pigmented lacquer as much as possible. I had done wood filler way back and found an extra coat or two does the trick. Most clients want to see grain, but not all of it! Glad you can take the time, of course prep is everything... what ever works...

@mikeenders598 3 года назад

Great video. You just convinced me to apply a second coat of aqua coat wood grain filler. I’ll do this on the cabinet carcass and frames. I’ve ordered shaker style replacement doors and drawer fronts.

@Gasdetection 3 года назад

I saw the video, went out on the job, applied the product to oak cabinets, the application process was slow, the result is good. I like using the vinyl sealer.

@aheimi 3 года назад

Thank you so much. The information you provided was very valuable when I started a project of changing old golden oak cabinets to a nice white updated finish. The only thing I did different was using the 'clear' Aqua Coat. It went on super easy but I wish I had purchased the 'white' Aqua Coat. It would have been much easier to see any grain spots that I may have missed. Lesson learned.

@SX-sv6vo 2 года назад

How many coats did you end up using? Did it hide the grain pretty well?

Can be applied any time Joe

Wood filler for hardwood floors works great also and sometimes takes only on coat depending on how bad the grain on the doors is. You apply it the same way as the aqua coat.

@soeneido443 5 лет назад

The directions on the aquacoat label recommend to degloss prior to sanding. I noticed that you didn’t do that here, do you think that deglossing is necessary? Also is it necessary to apply a coat of primer prior to spraying your paint color of choice? I’m using BM Advance for a set of bedroom cabinets. Thanks soo much!!!

@joserafael73 5 лет назад

I do two of problock oil base then two coat IILVA 2K Poly and that is enough to fill the grain.

@meghas28 5 лет назад

Hi! Good morning! I was wondering if you would be able to help me with a question I have. My brother and I have saved up money to get my parents’ kitchen cabinets refinished and we are really confused on weather to do paint or lacquer on oak. One professional indicated he would only do paint ( InsulX) on oak because lacquer doesn’t work well on oak because of grains and it yellows/can crack, and one professional indicated he only does lacquer (Campbell) . I’m so confused by the paint vs lacquer question, and then specific to oak cabinets..

@janetrodriguez914 4 года назад

What is the brand name of the sander you’re using in this video? I’m working on oak cabinets right now. I’m painting them white. I’m using aqua coat to fill the grain, thank you for that tip. I’d love to buy a sander like the one you’re using.

@Tom-qn5nd 2 года назад

I'm building some cabinets and the plywood has nicks and dings in it, as a matter of fact there are a lot of them on the plywood. I need to fill them in so the surface is smooth before painting. I just got done applying a primer and it really showed all the imperfections in the plywood. some are not very deep and others around a 1/8" deep. I've tried to use a wood filler but it doesn't it would take so much product. Would this Aqua Coat be the product to use?

@tonymejia2497 4 года назад

What do you think about using a deglosser instead of sanding?

@erico556 5 лет назад

Would you recommend applying a coat of shellac first prior to applying grain filler? I would imagine bonding issues occurring in a kitchen plagued with oils and grease. Having to go back and address all those issues would be a pain. Or have you not had much issues with aqua coat bonding?

@Smuddpie 3 года назад

Didn’t really know any better and used drywall mud to fill after a good sanding. Took a long time and was messy, but the result was spectacular. I would not have been happy with a grainy finish and have never regretted spending the time to do it. It’s been a few years now and it’s holding up well. I did not get by with caulking the panels, though. It has cracked, and I’m not sure what I should have done instead.

@Erin_Davenport Год назад

Curious if you live in a dry climate? I’m planning caulk our panels and do live in a dry climate but am still a bit nervous. Glad your project is holding up well generally!

@denniscotey8182 6 месяцев назад

Dry wall mud works well but you need to thin it to the consistency of thick paint. That will make sanding it back really easy. Cabinet maker, furniture builder and finisher for 40 years.

@scottrobinson8590 3 года назад

@lisaw8863 2 года назад

Hello, I've never used Aqua Coat or painted a cabinet before. I'm in the process of doing so, how do I determine how many application of Aqua Coat is needed before priming and painting? Thx,

@paintbynumbersllc571 2 года назад

Customer didn't want the grain filled on his oak cabinets I painted. I used the clear Aqua Coat mixed it with a little water and brushed a clear coat on front and back of cabinet doors and cases. Sanded, primed and painted. End result all grain was painted using an HVLP with no grain areas missing paint. Used Sherwin Williams KEM Aqua as the finish coat. Will be checking out Centurion Products very soon.

@davidhurst3780 4 года назад

@LiloUkulele 3 года назад

Quick tip, scoop some of that material into a drywall mud pan the use you plastic scraper to apply onto the doors.

Do you think it matters if using an orbital sander for the initial snading or palm sander only (oak boards)

@jazz901 2 года назад

I couldn't understand what you said is the name/type of sander you are using. Can it be connected to vacuum? Thk you. I'm preparing 26 old varnish window trims plus using aqua coat to eliminate most grain because I want smooth paint look. I think I know what steps I need, but I really like that sander you are using. Just couldn't catch the name.

@rougebaba3887 4 года назад

A customer fell in love with a super shinny product called "Fine Paints of Europe", an oil based exterior coating that was so glossy you could see your reflection in it. Her front door had tons of brushed acrylic paint and plenty of imperfections. The same company that made the paint also sold a product that served as a filler. It was also oil based. The filler worked okay, but that paint was so hard to apply. I just hate spraying oil paints. In hind sight, I should have opted to use an HVLP, but I just didn't have confidence in the only one I had in working order. To get one I thought could handle the job would have set me back about $1,900... and I just didn't have enough in this "paint my front door" job to justify it. I would have lost at least a grand and times were tough at that stage. I had only been in business for about a year. Some areas on that damn door took four coats to get it right..... but it was a thing of beauty when we were done. I ended up sectioning the door off into panels and rails to get it to look right. I got a great HVLP now. I'd do that kind of work in a heart beat... but I'd price it way higher and use my HVLP. Live and learn.

@brandoncampbell9794 6 месяцев назад

I'm curious about this product. I've always just used wood filler mixed into a slurry, dries hard and it seems like it would need less coats than this, usually just one or two for bad areas. It's much less expensive too, but maybe its harder or messier to work with. Does anyone have experience with both that could give me the pros and cons?
