Can you paint this color on with a brush? If you want a lighter color can you dilute the paint and with what?

This set is really just the bottles & powdered dye. You add water to the bottles in order to get the "paint". I would say no, you cannot paint this on with a brush. The dye becomes a loose liquid when water is added.

just use it as it is....don't mess around with it by diluting it with water or any other liquid! Use it sparingly....don't DROWN the floor with it and create a little "river". Just use it LIGHTLY.

I didn't paint mine but don't see why you can't. Use a semi gloss, it wears better.

Sorry I can't help with that. They have several different colors to choose from. I would ask at the paint store if they can mix whatever you want. Must likely they can

You can mix it with their Crystal clear and it will get it to be lighter. If you visit their web site they have mixes you can do to get certain colors.

Yeah...I can see no reason why you can't paint it. Personally, I just love it the way it is! It shows the natural wood, and will need no repetitive painting. If you want a dark color, then staining is the best choice (but staining usually needs a bit of skill to get it right - without streaks, and pools of color.) Painting would be fine, but you will probably have to paint it regularly cos a rocker will take a fair bit of wear and tear . In my honest opinion, trying to stain it a lighter color is not a good idea - every time I have tried to stain any wood a lighter color, I have always been disappointed with the results. Bottom line - love it for what it is. Furniture, like human beings, like to be what they are....and are unhappy being made to look like something they are not!

You only need to dilute your paint if it is really thick and this sprayer comes with a tool to help you to know when the paint is right by just putting some paint thru and count the seconds it takes to empty the little cup, and no you will not have to paint more coats if you do thin it and you will use ;ess paint by using the sprayer, hope this helps answer your questions

Use a gloss black primer, and then paint *extremely* light coats of chrome, building it up slowly. I find that 2-3 coats works best, and it dries very quickly in between coats. I have looked everywhere for a "manual" or directions, but have not found one, so the info I am giving you is based on my own tests. I tried it many different ways, and only gloss black with light chrome coats gave me the high polish results I was looking for. It should also be sealed if it's going to be even lightly handled, and again the sealing should be done with a very light hand. I would recommend testing on plastic spoons to make sure you have things right before you go to model, as stripping this stuff is a real PITA. Happy Painting!

No...this is a "touch-up" paint. It has a small brush (screw off top) or a brass "dopper" pen (under transparent top). Works well for small touch-ups.

I think you could paint it with any good paint. I would just paint it after its installed, otherwise the paint could crack and peel. I stained mine and since stain kind of permiates the product, it would fine for me.

It had been mentioned that there was no green in the box--could dabs of blue and yellow be mixed, or does this enamel dry too quickly for that? I am new to enamel paint, so not sure how fast it's meant to dry...Thanks in advance for answering.

We used it with a paint sprayer. If you use a brush, use a good brush as you don't want brush marks.

I think you can. Color is gray if I remember I used paint after it dried to match color.

well- it comes in little containers - kind of like the size you get when a child's little paint-by-numbers set. Then you can use a color if it matches, but most likely you'll mix a couple of colors - which actually stretches the amount of paint you have. It comes with a color chart to help you mix the right colors to get the one you're trying to achieve.

Never tried to paint it, however, I read some helpful info on West System's site about painting it. I have mixed dye in it with no problems.

It takes a wh8le to get the paint down to to tip....shake like crazy and push down to fill tip and try that. If you had used it before it may need done again. Otherwise maybe it dried out.

It seems to be. I just made a brush stroke and let it dry for a minute. Then I used a water-wet brush over the line and it did not dilute the line or smear it. After multiple passes over the line with the brush, it did not dilute or smear. However, if I use my thumb and smudge, it starts to smear. I would say if you have a light touch, maybe one or two passes of watercolor would be okay. If you really saturate the page with water and use instruments stronger than a brush (like your finger), you might see some line infidelity and dilution. Cheers.
