Why did I choose this glaze? Finishing a bench.

New to making Chalk paints or glazing? We paint this bench and glaze it in a sheer gray aging. We make such a variety of glazes and this recipe is perfect for this bench. We made our own 'tough' chalk paint to cover this bench. Brad made the bench from a headboard and footboard and kept the casters on. We love how it turned out and hope you do too! Our videos are basically a day in the life at the Good World Goods store. We make jewelry, upcycle furniture, make small easy projects like signs and we have bee creating fine canvas art for over 15 years! We never know what we'll be making. The link for the fabric glue is https://youtube.be/OvtZcNXseyE (hope that worked!) Thanks so much everyone! We would really appreciate it if you helped us out and like and share our video. Thank You!
