If I need to, I will put a little bit of water in the paint to thin it for the painting on and rubbing off process. If you want to use glaze, I think that would work the same and might be easier for you to use. Just add your paint color to clear glaze and you won't have to water it down. I've been doing these processes for so long, that I just do what I need to do for each job and the way I do things might not work as well for you and others. Just practice on the inside of a door or a piece of wood until you get exactly what you want.Lynda Bergman Decorative Artisanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08849271278750525374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5200038936204946004.post-47440441969411550422014-02-09T09:14:51.155-06:002014-02-09T09:14:51.155-06:00Thanks Lynda!

For the technique, I painted on a lighter color and painted on/rubbed off a darker color. then sanded the edges and sealed all of the cabinets. If you will go to your paint store, I'm sure they will have samples of different finishes and colors. Choose the one that you like and ask the paint people any questions you might have. It's important to get the colors that will match best in your bathroom. The supplies that you will find at your stores are probably not the same ingredients and brands that my paint store sells. So, that's why I'm suggesting you ask at your paint store. Hope that helps.
