It's been about 30 minutes now and now we're going to start sanding our lacquer. And you're just going to really lightly sand it. We don't want to sand too much and get down to the stain in the wood, but just to make sure the door is nice and smooth. [Music] Okay, now we've lightly sanded the lacquer on our door and we're going to begin applying our Van Dyke Brown Sherwood glaze. You'll be using just a few chip brushes. They're throwaway brushes. We'll be brushing it on and then just wiping it off to get the desired look that we want. There's two of us working on this door applying this glaze. So, it makes a pretty simple one. Just going to brush it on and then another person's going to wipe it off. And you got a little bit of working time. If you're working by yourself, just working, you know, small sections. I would do like half the side light, brush it on, and then wipe it off. But you've got you got, you know, about 30 minutes working time with this stuff before it dries. If it dries too fast, all you got to do is just rewet it with some more glaze and then you can begin, you know, working it around again. But just put is put a nice good heavy coat on, brushing it on, and then just begin wiping it off to achieve the desired look that you want. And different different types of rags will achieve different looks. A terry cloth is going to give you, you know, a certain type of look. If you use a smoother t-shirt type material like this, that's going to give you a different look, too. And I like to get my rag. It's going to take off a whole bunch in the very beginning. So, you definitely want to get a bunch of the glaze on your rag, you know, to uh begin the process. So John here, he's going to show you show us like how a professional applies this glaze. The real pro without dripping of course. Right. Just applying a nice good heavy coat on there with this brush. Brooke, I have a question for you, Brooke. I'm the one who does these. Really? So, you're the only one allowed to do interviews, huh? Yeah. So, this is Brooke, and we have a question for her. So, Brooke, if a guy was to ask you to get married, would it be okay if he gave you a ring for $100 or $1,000? Neither. I'm just going to let him get this whole sidelight right here done, and then I'll begin wiping the glaze off, and he'll begin on the opposite side. Once again, this is actually a a wiping glaze, and I got this stuff from Sherwin Williams, and it's quite a bit different than a gel stain or a stain. This glaze, this color is actually called Van Dyke Brown. And you can get the glazes mixed in any color you want. I like a really dark brown glaze. I'm going to begin just wiping it off. And I like to just rub it into the lacquer. I want it to soak into the lacquer really good because you want it to stain the lacquer. So, I kind of rub it in and then I'll start taking off as much as I want. If your if your rag is completely dry, doesn't have any of the glaze on it, the beginning of it's just going to in start off by taking it all off. So that's how I pre-wet my rag with the glaze. So I'm getting this side light just about where I like it. It's looking pretty good. Once this rag gets a little bit too wet with the glaze, I'm just going to switch over to another one. One thing when I'm wiping this glaze off, I like to actually work with the grain and leave my rag strokes with the grain of the door.
