Thank you Keep it Real, but I’m happy with the products I am currently using and the results I’m getting from them. I find it ironic that you come here to promote ASCP, but you post anonymously….

Hi Andrew,
I would love to know what wax you sell on eBay. I’ve been meaning to order some Fidde’s wax because I’ve heard it’s wonderful- is that the brand you sell? I do not have a chemistry degree either, but I’ve painted thousands of pieces of furniture and I agree that there is always another product that will give you the same end result or close. Thanks!

I love that bed set – it would be a shame to paint it

We also sell the Annie Sloan products in our store….I use them because they are handy for me to pull off the shelf. The person who sells the product in my store is a mini stockist….I have spoke with the stockist a couple of times and told her I thought the product was OK, but there are other products I like as well …she always argues with me about the product…and my lack of a chemistry degree….YOU WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THEY INVENTED WATER ITSELF. My god its paint, there is always something else that will give you the same end result or close . All that matters is that you are happy with your final result! Also i sell a wax from england on ebay that gives the same end result as Annie Sloan wax. I mean honestly do you think she mixes batches of this stuff up in her basement? Someone else makes it just like in the United States …same stuff different label. A.

I inherited this EXACT china cabinet from my grandmother along with the matching buffet. The color is very strange. It’s sort of orange. I love what you have done with the finish. It looks amazing!!!!

I am not a finisher and dont like to paint but I see furniture being refinished on the daily basis, All I hear is the amazement of people after a class and they keep coming back for more product. Whatever they have in this product is addictive. A finisher here in Houston has transformed so many pieces in her studio, You may want to contact her as she has a special touch using this product and I know first hand that she has mastered it.

I could send you pictures of the chairs if you’d like. My color chart has the same greasy spots as well. I would love an answer to what went wrong. Thank you!
