Thank you. I’m getting ready to paint a dining table for my granddaughter. You have helped me tons!
Very informative. Thank you.
Thanks for the tips.
Thank you for sharing!
Loved your video. Thank you for all the tips on preparing furniture for Fusion paint.
Thank you, that was really helpful before I start my first project.
You're so welcome!
Thankyou for this tutorial it made my first project less scary. cant wait to see more from lost and found
Yay!! You’re welcome :) You can do it!
Oh my gosh! I went and got the supplies you mentioned and cleaned a piece before staining and painting it. It was filthy!! Thanks for the tip!!
You stained AND painted?
what about a deglosser?? Would Murphys soap work?
This was helpful, thank you. Why do you sand though when FMP specifically says no sanding is needed?
Hi! Any piece that has a gloss to it, I do scuff sand before using Fusion. If a piece is old wood and very dry, then I do think you can skip sanding. That’s just been my experience as a user and retailer for 6 years now-glossy surface, scuff sanding is a must 😊

There is a tack cloth for water based paints!
Thanks for the tip!
My mineral paint piece is chipping right down to the bare wood?? If I seal it with a poly will that stop the paint from chipping? Has that ever happened to you?
Margaret Frook how did you prep it? Did you thoroughly clean and lightly sand it first?
Can I use this paint on an already sanded table?
Dimarys of course!
Gigantic orange cat? How about the gigantic tarantula! 😬
Thanks for the cleaning tips.
Yep! One of our Halloween decorations 😂
Whats the difference between mineral paint and chalk paint?
Fusion MIneral Paint is acrylic and seals itself, while chalk paint is porous and requires a topcoat to be sealed :)
Hii melini. First off sorry if i spelled you name wrong. Just need some advice and help on painting my furniture. Please help me out here with your advice. I just came across your videos and they are amazing.
Can’t you just use a magic eraser?
What's a tack cloth? We're in NZ
It’s a thin cloth that is kind of sticky or “tacky”, hence the name :) Woodworkers use them to wipe off sanding dust
I never GOT chalk paint. It seemed no better than flat paint.
Explain the benefit of mineral paint.
Fusion is an acrylic paint :) It does still have a matte finish, not quite flat like chalk paint is, but not glossy. The benefit of Fusion is low prep (compared to using a latex), and high durability once fully cured. No fumes, easy for the average DIY’er to use. A great paint!
If it unfinished pine wood what do I need to do before I paint?
Cleaning isn’t necessary on new or raw wood, but I would consider priming raw pine with an oil or shellac based primer because the knots may bleed through and stain the paint. If you’re painting a super dark color, it doesn’t matter quite as much :)
Doby sponge? Is this just a flat kitchen type sponge?
It's a certain kind of sponge sold in the kitchen cleaning aisle, called Dobie. It just has a bit of grit to it, but not enough to scratch your furniture
I'm sorry what kind of sponge
I like to use a Dobie sponge to clean. You can find them at Walmart :)
Oh...good tips. I am so bummed. I spent all of time a a double headboard with Fushion..then I was so excited to use Fushiin glitter for highlights in the middle. That glitter type paint is a mess..so much that I am going to scrap the whole piece. I see no way to fix it..total mess. Beware of their glitter paint.
Their metallic paints can be a big tougher to work with, has to do with the metallic mica pigments. They have more texture in them, and you need to make sure you paint in one direction only, so they all lay down the same way and reflect light the same direction, or you will see streaks.
Shouldn’t you use a clean rag
You have an enormous spider on your wall behind you above your door and it freaks me out I hate spiders and I know you get big ones in Texas!
LOL, it's a Halloween decoration! Sorry to freak you out :)
The moderator appears friendly but gets off the subject too much with minutia
I appreciate your feedback! This video was originally filmed as a FB LIVE for my regular audience who I chat with a lot :)
Why is this video the wrong way around?
It was originally filmes as a FB LIVE video and they film in reverse.
TALKS TO MUCH.
Thanks so much for your feedback :)
