today we're going to show you three simple techniques to whitewash wood all
you need is some white paint and few simple tools with this technique using
equal parts paint and water the paint becomes semi-transparent and allows the
wood grain show through first mix your paint and water next grab a rag and
apply liberally finally go back over and even things out once it's dry apply
another coat or two and you get your desired finished look
this technique is best for new lumber and smooth surfaces it creates an even
and controlled look with just a little bit of farmhouse style with this
technique use wax to mask high points and grain in the board before painting
using the side of a candle roughly rub wax along the entire surface of the wood
working quickly and sporadically this leaves an uneven coat of wax on the
surface apply paint with a paintbrush
you'll see some of the waxed spots repelling paint after the paint has dried too tacky
consistency take a rag and scrub over the board to remove even more paint just
dip your rig and a little bit of water and keep going until you like the look
this technique really only works on rough or reclaimed wood with a lot of
texture first pour a bead of paint down the
center of your board then take a plastic putty knife and drag the paint across
the board to fill in the grain one coat of paint should do it but you can always
add a second for more coverage
