Review: Very nice glaze for beautiful decorative finishes - I have used this over milk paint and latex, and the results are amazing. It is very important that your topcoat is fully cured before attempting to apply glaze. There are a variety of ways to apply this product which all produce different results. Some of the options include sealing or not before application, sealing or not sealing after application, and scuffing or sanding before or after application for example. It might be advisable to review these instructions on the can and even do a test area if you are interested in the different possible looks.
Review: Glaze - Love this glaze you can use for so many things. Seals hard looks great easy to use and easy clean up.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do I need to put a poly acrylic top coat over this product? Thank you!**
A: You really should. The top coat will protect the hard work you just did painting the piece. And it's easier to clean when there's a nice smooth, glossy surface.

**Q: will this knock down the yellow tone of my golden oak cabinets? or should I try their gel stain for that?**
A: This glaze product dries very fast. it is for sticking in the ridges, cracks and edges of your work to provide depth and maybe an aged look. It wouldn't be best used to coat like a stain although you can.  Van Dyke brown will tone down the color if it's too yellow but the Gel stain will give you more "open" time to work with the piece.  Not sure if you have a single piece or many surfaces.  Cabinets should be treated with a stain that won't dry fast to allow you to take it off if it doesn't look good. Or layered in thin coats to get the effect your looking for.

**Q: I have a China hutch that I want an antique look can apply this directly over the stain that's on it or do I need to sand it off and start from scratc**
A: For antiquing, I apply directly over the paint or stain and then wipe off the excess.  Only if the wood is damaged (scratched or gouged) would you need to start over, but those very "faults" can increase the antique look.

**Q: I want to age parts of my newly painted buffet. Is this what I am looking for?**
A: This product is AMAZING.  It can be however, there is a skill to it that I would advise practice several times on a less expensive scraps of wood.  As a perfectionist myself, I was not able to achieve it.  I ended up with the most beautiful black kitchen cabinets myself, and finished them with the water base clear coat of the same line, and the best way I can describe my cabinets to the touch is: Lux buttery delicious (if that makes any sense).  Try this: apply a mix of vinegar previously soaked with wool fibers (YouTube it) to a lightly sanded surface (free of clear coat) and this will age the surface of the stained wood according to it's natural texture. This worked for me however, fell in love with the jet black look instead which I kept.  Hope this helps.
