How to do Lime wash?
by
Susan
I would like to lime wash my french country dining room set-- and............ I have ZERO experience. I love the set I have--but the varnish on it has yellowed. I would like to send a picture, so you can tell me if it can be done, and how many hours I need to purchase to learn how to do it. Thank you susan

They make a whitening paste wax. You will have to contact a specialty faux store or an art store to get it. All you do is wipe it on evenly. That's it. No buffing or anything. Just one thing it is labor intensive.
Susan, this is the only video I could find with the exact wording 'lime wash.' I hope it's what you need.
