Note: Your results may vary! Please experiment on some scrap before trying this on something permanent. Also, this technique may not be suitable for surfaces that are expected to take abuse. I use it primarily for superficial work, but many viewers have had success on light-duty furniture.
Regardless, a satin clear coat is recommended for added durability. It may also help in the case that your stain is still tacky after several days.
Some stains are thinner than others and may bead up when you try to brush them on. I've handled this by doing the following:
1. Brush on the stain.
2. Hit it with a hair dryer for 10-15 seconds.
3. Brush again.
4. Repeat steps 2 & 3 until the stain starts to thicken.
Again, always experiment before committing to the final project. Good luck!

I plunged feet first into your turorial, and then trying it out on a 3D printed prop, not really knowing what I was getting into. FANTASTIC RESULT !! I can't share my extreme enthusiasm for finding this very simple, and straight forward technique to 'create' wood finishes. I applied Dark Walnut stain over a butterscotch acrylic base. I am still gobsmacked. Well done.

I just used this technique on the Malm bed from ikea. I wanted a wooden bed on a budget and mission accomplished! I didn’t use spray paint because I did this project in my apartment bedroom and didn’t want paint sprayed all over the walls but the result was amazing. I used a peanut butter ish color base and American chestnut color stain and the result is just magical. And I didn’t have to watch some 30 min long video on how to do it. Now I have a modern wooden bed instead of some basic ikea panels. Thank you so much!!

In my twenties and thirties, I did quite a lot of this kind of work in media/theatrical/display contexts. Chip brushes, definitely your best friend. Amber (or clear) shellac over MDF is an excellent base. More than a couple of coats will be counterproductive (shellac doesn't like too many coats), but you want it smooth as possible at this point. The next part sounds insane, but working theatrical gold paint (Rosco is what I used) with a little dark green and red analine dye produces a set of iridescent brown tones that you can brush thin--exposing some of the shellac/MDF base--as a second layer. The important thing is to get some natural variation and some iridescence/reflective content underneath. The more motion you get into the layering, the more complexity and depth you can coax out of the final product, as you work on top of a more complex basecoat. You may paint most if it away, eventually, but if you're trying to emulate wood that has a lot of depth, it can really work. Also, don't hesitate to take scissors to the chip brushes, and make specific tools for specific outcomes.

@BruceRichardsonMusic
@BruceRichardsonMusic 3 года назад
​@@terranceroberts6259 Well, it was long before RU-vid was a thing. The trick is to use materials with differing properties. Also, taking scissors to chip brushes, and making grain-tools out of them. If you get a good looking layer, then lock it down with an additional thin coat of shellac. That lets you keep layering without washing away the interesting things you have happening.

Thanks for the great faux wood grain technique! Tried this on a $50 hutch I bought on Craiglist. First time and I think it turned out quite well. A couple of things to mention are that the technique works best when applied flat and also, since the stain is applied over a painted surface drying time is greatly prolonged. The it took me about a week to finish all sides of the cabinet and another week for full cure.

Theme painter for theme parks here. You can also do a black wash technique to build out more colors. Start like how he did. But take a wet cloth and pull some color off. Then add in some lighter colors in the crevices to make it look like wood at theme parks. Still though, the method he showed is like 80% of the theme park quality. For like 1/4 effort. Not bad if you ask me.

Very similar to a technique I saw when stripping old furniture. A lot of it seemed to have been done in the 30's to 50's based on the apparent age of the finishes. There would be a coat of what appeared to be beige milk paint with heavily pigmented organic varnish applied over top with various brush techniques. Often it was indistinguishable from actual wood to a casual eye. Neat technique.

I used the stain only on some PVC pipe to make spears for a play. The first coat basically did the same as your paint and kind of stained the PVC. Then I went over that with a thicker coat of stain. I had trouble getting the stain to dry and not smudge. I fixed this by coating it with a rustoleum matte clear.

I’ve done a similar method to lighten the orange/red tone mahogany sides on a dresser made of mixed woods. The front was a nice light color when sanded, but the sides would never sand that light due to the types of wood used, so I painted the sides a light earthy color, started blending wood tone paint colors to bring it back into balance with the type of wood on the front, playing with some pale yellow and browns till I had the illusion of grain in the brush strokes and I was very close on the light wood color, then finally I stained over the paint with the light stain used on the front wood just to finish it off with the right tones as reflected in different times-of-day light. It took some time to match it up, but it worked out really well.

You would do good to use mineral spirits (white creamy)in your stains because you are not getting enough "slip" along your substrate. You could also lay down a light coat of mineral spirits (Floetrol if you are using waterbased stains) on the entire substrate. Then you can dip your brush in multiple colors (one side one color the other side another color, aka double/triple dipping) and drag your brush along the board. While chip brushes are ok and economical, my favorite brush is equally as cheap and available at Michaels. A three pack of Artist Loft or Craftsmart ORANGE brushes (straight and angled) are MUCH more versatile than simply using a chip.

Thank you SO much! I have a gorgeous piece that was my grandmas and thought for sure it was real wood but it is MDF on top and has no wood grain look. It’s just solid. The drawers however are real wood I believe or they seem to be! They have a beautiful grain pattern. Anyway, I want to paint it white and distress it a bit but I want the top to be darker and stained. Obviously I didn’t think I could do it with no grain patterns since it’s MDF. I want to get this right though because it was my granny’s and I’ll keep it forever. Oh! Also, the darn thing was painted before in a crackle paint. That stuff was impossible to remove. The dresser has many intricate details and cracks and crevices. It has been a tough job sanding it all the way down so I really don’t want to mess it up. I may have to try your technique on something else first to see if I can even do it correctly.

I found if you want to hide a lot of damage or wear just use solid yellow paint with a primer as your base. That will cover any repairs imperfections etc. If you use gloss rough it up with 120 grit, rub in a light layer of dark brown stain to make it "wood'. You can make your "primary" stain level as light or dark as you want with dark stain by rubbing away any excess till you're happy. Can't do that if the stain is too light. Use a cut up cut brush makes your lines.

These look good. I think you'll get a better result if you thin out the stain a bit. I've also had luck making my own wood graining tool: a cheap squeegee with little notches cut out of the rubber. All of this can be done with water-based paint as well. It plays nicer with foam board and the lack of fumes is a plus. You just thin out your top coat with Floetrol (water is not slimy enough).

He showed you how easy it is, just do it. I am sure that you will be amazed. I did six metal window frames, now they are PINE!

Cool technique another good way to prime or actually seal raw. MDF is using Shellac ive found its one of the cheapest and Fastest drying although your spray dries pretty fast too BTW i buy Shellac by the gallon and spray it thru my HVLP setup its very forgiving and. Is easy to spray i think in the future i may. Start making my own Shellac so i have a ;little more control of the tone plus it seems easy and even cheaper its not all about the cost but my passion and hobby is woodworking as i worked in the industry for over 20 years

i think the proper brush (with somewhat hard bristles) is also important to get that natural looking grains...

I did this on Styrofoam insulation for a Halloween decoration. A tiny bit of stain goes a LONG way. We used rags to wipe the excess and lighten the color. It looks great, but it has been several days and the stain is still tacky to the touch. I am guessing because it could not be absorbed by the paint. It is an outdoor decoration so it is not a problem for me, but something to keep in mind if you are doing this for a higher contact project.

That first one was amazing and I love that shade,but the others I think. Your the expert as you've done this,lol. But you should let it fully cure or start to tack before adding the next coat. Also try a lighter hand stroke. 🤷‍♂️ just got into staining myself. I did my bathroom in real on white walls with a white weathered and burnt drift wood trim.

Stains are oil based. Did you use oil base spray paint for base colour???

Will the penetrating stain stay on over paint? I thought I could only use the gel stain
