Secret to a new trendy wood finishing technique

Secret to a new trendy wood finishing technique

#woodfinishes #cerusedfinish #cerusing

Watch as Wes shows you how to achieve this unique glazing application.

The paint is the same as my video with the 3 cabinet finishes I posted. It is a tinted primer sealer from M.L. Campbell. I used a white/black oil based glaze and final step is a clear top coat of lacquer.

    looks Great ! but not going all that work for an amazing floor for my work utility trailer

    Before you put the glaze on, which finish of paint did you used? water base paint or oil base paint?

    Hi Wes, great job!! Currently remodelling our kitchen and I have a quick question. You mentioned that you sprayed the paint, SEALED it, and then put the glaze on (2:30). What do you mean by this sealing step? What or why did you use? I haven’t seen the sealing step in your other video about cerused oak. Thanks! (I am suspecting you mean priming, but doesn’t the primer seal everything?)

    Beautiful

    Would this work on a curly maple or mahogany?



  6. HeatherE Steubing-Fisher on August 31, 2022 at 11:49 pm

    Will this work on plywood? I made faux shiplap planks and want the white with black stain look!



  7. Tinyhawk Forde on August 31, 2022 at 11:49 pm

    Looks great aside from the top of the light one, lost the graining.

    I’m looking to do a black stain base on oak with a metallic gold ceruse as the accent… which product would you recommend for the ceruse? I used a Minwax True Black stain and I’m having trouble with too much of the accent being left covering the non-grain parts and over-vigorous steel-wooling removed too much of the stain. I really want a clean Black base with gold grain.

    Could you do this on pine?

    Nice secret 007.Thnaks

    1st time here; very cool Wes! Very cool. I was researching a method of staining in black. A more contemporary look for a Bakers rack I am building out of 1" rounded 1/8" aluminum. TIG welded. The wood I chose more out of economics for my sister-in-law, select 3/4 pine from HD which is lovely and clean. I burned a Mapel 2" slab for a job and used an epoxy clear bar top and it came out almost 3-dimensional, totally cool. Can’t burn 3/4" anything, so wanted to try black stain. I would of got oak but didn’t know. I will be learning more in the weeks to come from "Woodworking with Wes" good times

    Can this technique be done on veneer?



  14. Ellie Bunker on August 31, 2022 at 11:58 pm

    *As an amateur with woodworker, I typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement. Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness **Allmy.Tips** I now work like a genius. That is great!*



  15. Pedro Pascale on August 31, 2022 at 11:58 pm

    Hi sir.. nice video.. i would like to get beige color on oak wood with white grain!.. so i have to stain with beige.. then apply white stain on top and then buff and seal??? Can you let me get an idea? Thanks!



  16. Layna8 on August 31, 2022 at 11:59 pm

    LOVE THAT BLACK ONE ON THE LEFT…;)



  17. sol mondragon on August 31, 2022 at 11:59 pm

    I am trying to do this technique on some cabinets but where can I find the black paint and the white oil base glaze haven’t had any luck can you give me the exact items that you use so that I can try ordering them from somewhere I’m doing the cabinets black with white glaze



  18. Traves M on August 31, 2022 at 11:59 pm

    Is Birch a good candidate for this effect or not? Thanks



  19. Jim Miller on September 1, 2022 at 12:00 am

    How well will it hold up t UV ‘s



  20. Richard Batters on September 1, 2022 at 12:00 am

    Excellent video and a true craftsman.
    This video is so well done. But I just wanted to say. The two colors of finish both of which are beautiful btw,.. would be better defined if you taped the same one piece board down the center but the same grain and sealed on one buried level just to showcase the offset of the effect of the offset of finishes but better recognized when it’s viewed on the same grain profile…? If that came out correctly. All thumbs up.



  21. Todd Hathaway on September 1, 2022 at 12:02 am

    That is seriously awesome work man! I love the way they came out 🙂



  22. William Fox on September 1, 2022 at 12:04 am

    Wes just built a yellow pine table and would like to know if this process will work on this type of wood.



  23. Nickoli Brewer on September 1, 2022 at 12:06 am

    How would it look with black prime and silver or gray glaze



  24. tim hankins on September 1, 2022 at 12:06 am

    It would’ve actually been nice to see the process being done and explained at the time. Doing a quick video doesn’t really show the process. What if you’re not spraying the wood with stain, i use a brush or a rag.



  25. Mindy Clark on September 1, 2022 at 12:07 am

    I am trying to remove the cerused look from a dining table. It looks like a zebra. I cannot find a single web search that shows how to remove it. All my searched just show to to do it. I am frustrated.



  26. MATT PLOHARSKI on September 1, 2022 at 12:07 am

    So this video did not teach me a damn thing ! Like explain the steps all u said was put on ur base then paint glaze and use doing sandpaper ok so again no clue – so do u spray base coat and let sit for a day 5 min ? Next what kinda of sand paper sponge 80 -120-150-220-1200 ?? So very confused watching video I could not figure it out cause u did not explain anything



  27. Unknown Erorr on September 1, 2022 at 12:11 am

    great vid great vibes



  28. Beckham Jules Huynh on September 1, 2022 at 12:11 am

    Will this work for cherry 🍒 wood?



  29. Phuong Nguyen on September 1, 2022 at 12:12 am

    That’s amazing job,

    The tutorial was great but the way you say white makes me uncomfortable…



  32. damag3plan on September 1, 2022 at 12:15 am

    How’s it go on pine for us poor carpenters?



  33. sebastian penny on September 1, 2022 at 12:15 am

    Can you achieve this on pine ?



  34. Maria Madrigal on September 1, 2022 at 12:16 am

    Hi Wes, turned out beautiful, question for you, my cabinets are oak in the white wash finish. I now want to change n go for a dark stain finish. What color would I need to paint them to b able to get that effect?



  35. Fede Lopez on September 1, 2022 at 12:22 am

    Cómo puede ser tan bella y noble una madera tan común. ❤️



  36. Alex Polidoro on September 1, 2022 at 12:24 am

    Spectacular! Well done Wes!



  37. patrick dunn on September 1, 2022 at 12:30 am

    I am with you on the red oak, it’s my fav also. Love that look, and I have subscribed to your channel to learn from you. Thank you sir.



  38. Shawn P on September 1, 2022 at 12:30 am

    Quality of video and work is amazing,… 👍



  39. Christopher D on September 1, 2022 at 12:31 am

    Do you think that I could do this on my 30 year old red oak treads on my stairs? I’d also like to do it on the hand rail as well. They are both the famouse 1980 golden oak.



  40. The Respected Lex on September 1, 2022 at 12:34 am

    It still seems like a puzzle to see what you did, in which order.



  41. Woodworking With Wes on September 1, 2022 at 12:35 am

    Hey check out the video where I go more in depth as to how I get this look https://youtu.be/LdmsLbqGA1c



  42. Fishhead on September 1, 2022 at 12:35 am

    Will this process work on Blackwalnut wood??



  43. Big Daddy on September 1, 2022 at 12:37 am

    I did this on treads on a circular staircase. Will a lacquer be a durable enough finish? I don’t want my great work to get beat up too soon. I think a couple coats of lacquer might suffice.



  44. Alexander The Meh on September 1, 2022 at 12:37 am

    Porous woods like mahogany also works excellent..



  45. Life_regeneratio on September 1, 2022 at 12:37 am

    Hi 👋 it’s cool video and thank you 🙏 so much !!

  47. Tim and Gus chronicles Team GT on September 1, 2022 at 12:39 am

    Hi Wes great Video! What is the grit on that roller to sand the wood ?and im thinking about doing this on my oak stairs



  48. Shelly White on September 1, 2022 at 12:40 am

    Can ceruse be done on veneer?



  49. Ali Sliem on September 1, 2022 at 12:40 am

    nice work



  50. WJFK on September 1, 2022 at 12:41 am

    I like the black on top of the white, but I don’t like the white on top of the black. I could be the the wood grain on the darker one that made it look strange to me, almost like an animal print, but that’s just not my style preference. They look beautiful and I love the idea.
