  • Update with a wood grain and stain.....Marvelous!
Size: 1x Reg (50 sq ft) Style: Weathered Finish Color: 20 Java
This is my second time buying this product! I love that I can give new life to something that is 20+ years old. I have before and after pictures up. Before is the last one, a standard, late 90's, early 00's table. Now? Gorgeous dark wood top with a bit of weathered look. This system is fairly easy! I used a base of Light Wood and grained with the Bleached Wood (picture 4). The liquid wood dries fast and you can stain after it dries. I LOVE how it turned out! I have picked up a few more things to do. My chair seats were lightly sanded and stained with the RetiqueIt water based gel stain in Java. I did not use the liquid wood on them, just stained over the existing color (5th picture). If you are wanting a change and your existing furniture has a lot of life left but you are tired of it? Give this a go! ... show more

  • Looked great at first
Size: 1x Reg (50 sq ft) Style: Rustic Finish Color: 30 Black Walnut
I decided to try this kit on my kitchen table instead of the traditional sanding and straining route because I didn’t feel like standing outside in the cold sanding a table for hours. This kit had everything I needed in it except the polycrylic sealant (which I ordered separately from this brand as well). Overall the kit was very easy to use and I was able to knock the whole table out in a day. The only part where I had to divert from the instructions was using two coats of the light liquid wood base instead of one (some of the marker on the table was showing through with just one coat). I also used a hair dryer on the cool setting to speed up my process a little. The wood grain pattern making tool was easy to figure out after watching a video on YouTube. Honestly I have no complaints about this kit except my new overwhelming urge to paint everything like wood. It was easy to use and I would never guess that wasn’t the actual wood grain of the table if I hadn’t just been the one to paint it. My husband described the kit as witchcraft, which is accurate. UPDATE 3/2021: The polycrylic sealant from this company sucks so much. Hasn’t held up well to wear at all. The results are very pretty at first, but not durable enough for something high use like a kitchen table. Probably would have held up longer with a sealant from a different brand. ... show more

  • Easy and beautiful!
Size: 1x Reg (50 sq ft) Style: Brushed Finish Color: 45 Charcoal
I am in ❤️ With this product! See my before and afters! This desk was one I painted a couple of years ago and the paint was peeling horribly! My plan was to strip it down and stain just my high use surface areas (mostly to avoid repainting the entire hutch- a huge project) I started trying to strip the paint off but had so much difficulty I started searching for an easier route! I found this Retique It and wish I would’ve searched this before attempting to strip the paint! I was able to do 2 coats of Liquid wood over top of my painted surface and then 2 coats of stain/polyurethane over the stain and viola- looks AMAZING! So easy, quick drying, and I think it will be very durable! ... show more

  • Not Gel Stain
Size: 1x Reg (50 sq ft) Style: Brushed Finish Color: 50 Weathered Wood
I think this is an interesting concept. The liquid wood reminds me of chalk paint so I am assuming it is brown paint with saw dust in it? The gel stain is as thin as water. If you are doing a flat surface it may be great but I had some very intricate legs on my table and it was an epic fail. I emailed the company and then decided to return the unused portion. Will need to go buy real gel stain now. ... show more

  • I'm in love with this kit!!!
Size: 1x Reg (50 sq ft) Style: Rustic Finish Color: 30 Black Walnut
The media could not be loaded. This kit is awesome and definitely worth the price. The materials in the kit are of good quality. The brushes arent cheap or flimsy and the paint containers are a good size. I have tons left over for other projects. U would never be able to tell its painted on wood cuz it feels so real. I would highly recommend this kit if u have some ugly pieces youd like to spruce up. I didnt take a before pic but the cabinet before i painted it was the average white cabinet youd find in a rental bathroom. Also on the left hand top corner its darker than the rest but that was because the original cabinet was peeling so i probably shouldve peeled the rest of before starting but I didnt so thats why its slightly darker. All in all u wont be disappointed. Its user friendly theres no way u can mess this up lol. If I can do it u can do so just buy it 😉 ... show more

  • Stunning 10/10
Size: 1x Reg (50 sq ft) Style: Brushed Finish Color: 20 Java
I never write Amazon reviews, but this product absolutely deserves 5 stars. Flawlessly transforms almost any surface into an unbelievably realistic wood texture. The process is easy and much quicker than alternatives (mostly just waiting for coats to dry and can be completed in 3-5 hours depending on the scale of the project). Most of the negative reviews seem to be based off of user error. Watch some videos on YouTube and make sure to layer up to your desired tone and texture. Long and consistent strokes across the length of the surface are key to success. The only downside is this bundle does not include a polycrylic sealant, so make sure to pick some up before you start your project or you’ll be scrambling last minute for it. I’ve used this on wood, plastic, and even stiff non stretch fabric and they’ve all turned out flawlessly. With just a pinch of artistry, and retique it is an unstoppable force of design ease. 10/10 ... show more
