Wax acts as a sealant and helps to add dimension, whereas Glaze is more translucent on a piece and is typically used to highlight. Glaze also has a metallic sheen compared to wax’s matte look.
Dixie Belle Glazes are luminous water-based colors used to create gorgeous decorative finishes such as stippling, burnishing, aging, and color washing. You can create unique Faux finishes while adding depth and dimensions to your project. Our Glazes can be intermixed or layered to create your own unique colors. We recommend using our chalk mineral paint first!

You for got to mention to add clear 'wax' as a protector to be able to wipe of any excess before applying glaze...
Thank you for the feedback, we appreciate it.
If you don’t have the satin top coat can the gator hide work?
Hi there! Yes, you can use Gator Hide in place of Clear Coat! This is our most durable topcoat! We hope this helps and happy painting! :)

Can this glaze be successfully used on cabinets that were not painted with chalk paint? Thanks!

Do you clearcoat after glazing?
No Jane, you do not have to clearcoat after glazing. It is very durable on its own.
