"I mixed up a soft black using 2 parts General Finishes Lamp Black and 1 part Queenstown Gray. I added a bit of water to thin the paint, and it absorbed into the wood much like a stain. So good. I sealed it up with a couple of coats of General Finishes High Performance Topcoat in flat. The finish is so pretty, and feels meant to be on this piece."
"This was painted with a custom mix of Emerald, Klein Blue and Seagull Gray, then glazed with Pitch Black. The top was stained with General Finishes Black Gel Stain and sealed with Arm-R-Seal. The body was finished with High Performance Top Coat in Semi-Gloss." - J&P Designs
