You are the only one I've seen that explains this process. I just saw the one about the top coat first 😊 Even though you still don't have many followers compared to others, I'm sure you will soon have many, many followers. You explain everything in detail and don't leave anything out. Thank you.

Thank you so much. I have painted a dark brown closet with white paint and only one coat and the brush strokes are killing me, now i understand it's just a lack of paint. I can't wait to do a second coat tomorrow along side water and sandpaper 😅✨
Thank you so much!

I just found you and your videos!! Thank you so much for explaining your steps in a easy to understand format! I have to add.. it does kinda “scare” me not to scuff sand a darker piece before paint.

Can you do the water technique with Fusion Mineral Paint???
Does this method work with alkyd cabinet paint?
I've read from fusion mineral paint themselves say their aio paint is not compatible with water, yet I see content creators spray, mist, and/or dilute for spraying, etc. Have you had any negative experience in this regard with that brand's aio paint? Tia.

It is a water based mineral paint and it is compatible to be used with water and other waterbased products. As a company I’m sure they are careful to not say certain things to avoid any possible issues with their products. I use water to help with ease of application and I thin with water when spraying - in 8 years not a single issue. They also say their product is not made for spraying. It is 100% compatible with sprayers. Again, I would say the are covering their bases as to not recommend in the event of an issue so they aren’t blamed for anything .
I really thought you’d I really thought you’d pull out the small foam roller, that’s the best aid to smooth coats.

Nah Im not a huge roller fan. The best rollers are the microfelt though if your going to roll 😀
On their website they have five of their best selling brushes with a canvas bag for $ 52 plus your discount; it is a bargain with quality considering the research I have done .
