Very helpful and thanks for keeping yourself on track but also plugging your other videos!! I’m a true beginner and need to learn EVERYTHING from scratch
You are so welcome! I just started a BACK TO BASICS video series. My most recent video was titled "How to Prep Before You Paint Furniture". You should check it out.
Thank you so so much . I have been trying to know what to get for months now and now I'm ready so thank you
You are so welcome! I’m glad the video helped you with your new adventure diving into refinishing furniture!
Love the tips and help!!!
Awesome to hear!
Great info! Thanks 👍
I’m glad you found it helpful! I’m currently working on my next video. I’ll be doing another tutorial with a top 10 list, this time on tools and gadgets.
This was a great help. Thank you
You are very welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting 😊
thank you, very helpful!
You're welcome!
Love the tips and tricks of the trade that you share. Keep up the good work. Also, denatured alcohol is the solvent in shellac. I use denatured alcohol to clean my shellac brushes. Works for both the Amber shellac and the Zinsser BIN white shellac. After my brushes are clean, I dump the denatured alcohol back in their respective shellac containers. With Amber shellac, I just add additional shellac flakes to the mix. With Zinsser BIN, I don't add anything. I just dump the alcohol back in.
Ma’an your comment is FULL of useful tidbits!!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I usually throw away my shellac brushes. Now I know how to clean them. Thank you so much!
Just purchased an old cabinet which I will convert into an alcohol cabinet/counter. Deciding on how I will want it to look and at the same time, consequentially adding to my list of supplies. Congrats on the new pooch :-)
That sounds like such a cool upcycling type of project! The new pooch is keeping me on my toes for sure but lots of fun!
I just found your videos and I love them
Oh wonderful!!! Welcome to my channel!
New subscriber here. Love your vids and your energy! Great info and very helpful for newbies like me.
Thanks and welcome!
Awesome video. Surprised nylon sock over foam brush didn’t make list!
You are right! I should have added that with the foam brush. Ugh. So many supplies that you need. My thinking was probably most people start out waxing furniture and then they branch out to water-based and oil based topcoats that’s where the nylon booty comes into play.
When you started belting out #1-12 from Sesame Street, I nearly lost it. That was one of my favorite bits from that show. I guess it shows me age as well🤣
Hahaha! Yup us “oldies” know how iconic that song is!
@@madelinejeanantiquesrestor9074 Absolutely 👍
Getting ready to seal 2 tops going to use ur nylon tip on them.Will let u know how it went.
Did it work?
1,2,3, ,4,5 6 7,8,9 10. 11,12... I love it 😀 yes
You caught that!!! Haha!
Question: do you ever use Hide Glue
These are great tips and suggestions! In regards to the shellac…do you use shellac and a primer? Or, do you just use shellac and then paint? Thanks letting us see sweet Bacon. Loved the Bacon and Biscuit pics at the end 👍
I use primer (which is usually white) only when I’m painting white pieces OR I’ll be distressing a gray painted piece and I want the under color to be white and peek through. I don’t like wasting my good white paint so I’ll use cheap white primer as a base when I’m painting white pieces (serves as a primer and a good first coat). I’m hoping I’m making sense. So with white pieces it’s Shellac two coats, white primer (basically first coat), then my good white paint. If I’m painting a piece black, green, dark blue, etc. and I don’t want a white to be underneath and I’m not distressing (like a white primer) I just simple use Shellac, it serves just fine as a primer to block stains and wood tannins. I always apply two coats of shellac. Isn’t Bacon Bits just the cutest? He’s hyper but a good puppy. He’s completely potty trained. Biscuit has warmed up to him too!
Thank you, Bethany, for answering my question!
@@lizhoward9754 You are very welcome! I hope I made sense.
I have an antique picture frame I am going to restore. It seems to have a “texture” on it over the wood and am not sure what to put on it first after cleaning. Any suggestions what to use on it to start the restoration process? 😊
Bethany, I just ordered 25 lbs of rags from one of my suppliers for my business. My contact said this is what her painting and staining clients order. They are used, washed and in great condition. I haven't found any issues with any of them. They are basically old T-shirts and 100% cotton. Pricing on the rags is about $0.85 to $1.50 per pound. Great Deal. Let me know if you're interested and I'll send you the info.
Oh very cool! I usually pick up a 10 pound bag at Lowes. I'd be curious what you are getting a 25 lbs. bag for.
@@madelinejeanantiquesrestor9074 $0.85 - 1.50 per lb plus shipping.

If you are interested I can forward their info.
Madeline, I just used Varathane Diamond finish top coat on my table top and chairs. It’s been 3 weeks and the smell is still absolutely potent and I can’t use them yet. What is a better alternative thats very durable but that won’t stink for long?
Are we talking an oil based topcoat? I’m going to assume we are because you mentioned the finish smelled potent. I absolutely love two topcoats by General Finishes. Their Gel Poly topcoat is amazing and so is their Arm n Seal topcoat. I apply both with a 2” foam brush. I have excellent results and no lingering stinky smell.
@@madelinejeanantiquesrestor9074 it says it’s water based. It’s Rust-Oleum Varathane 200061H Interior Crystal Clear Water-Based Polyurethane.
I've primed a dark piece twice and still see some tanins. Shall I prime more or shellac?
I would definitely apply shellac. Apply two coats and you should be all set.
I was literally JUST singing that song the other day around my younger co workers and I said "god i'm showing my age: : )
Ever tried Durhams Water Putty.. Never run out of activator
No I haven't. Please explain it further.
@madelinejeanantiquesrestor9074 Instead of having a tube of activator, which usually runs out before the tub of bonds, Durhams mixes with water. You can mix it a little thin, so it runs into small cracks. Dries 10 mins and you sand in 15. Gets as hard as Bondo
@@purtis99 Whoaaaa! I like the sound of that much better! Thank you for explaining it in full detail. I’m going to go look for it.
@@madelinejeanantiquesrestor9074 and it's cheap as well
Tongue depressors for stirring paint and making paint sample sticks 🙃
Yeeeesss! Great addition! I grab these at the Dollar Store all the time.
Madeline, vous voulez bien m'apprendre vôtre système de transfert please, merci bien que j'en connaisse plusieurs
I just started a furniture restoration business. Could you give me some info on the best suppliers and if anyone does ney 30 accounts. I really need some supplies. Thanks
Very cool! What type of supplies are you looking for? Some I get on Amazon, some at Lowes and some I get on the cheap at the Dollar Store.
Bacon!
