Apply and Wipe Off Whitewash Glaze

What happens here

Once the gray-stained planks are dry (after approximately 2 hours), use a latex brush to apply a thin, quick coat of the prepared whitewash mixture over the entire surface of each board. Immediately after application, use a clean t-shirt or rag to wipe off the paint/glaze mixture. The amount of mixture wiped off will determine the final look – wiping more will result in a more transparent and heavily distressed effect, while wiping less will leave a more opaque whitewash. Continue this process until the desired level of whitewash and distressing is achieved on all boards. The glaze allows for more working time to manipulate the effect before the paint dries.

Goal: Apply a thin coat of the whitewash mixture to the dried, gray-stained planks and immediately wipe off varying amounts to achieve a custom distressed look.
