Being creative and choosing the colors and methods you think will look best is key to creating a wood graining faux finish you are proud of. Hello I am trying to paint my concrete to a wood look and like the look of pine. Do you have any suggestions for what I should use? Thank you, Vinita. Being concrete you will need to smooth the surface with patching compound then seal it with a good acrylic primer.
A background color of paint will need to be applied, a satin sheen is best. The idea is to produce a fairly smooth and sealed surface for the wood graining. After all of this work the gaining can take place. I would use the glaze method for a large surface. It might be best to think of this as stripes and use tape to make a plank look. This will take some experimentation to get right but could be a really cool look.
Let us know how it goes and take pictures. The base color is a light grey any tips, hints, or suggestions you may have in reference to what steps I should take after scuffing? I want to redo my utility room with a wood look on the lower half of the walls.
What graining tools would you suggest? I thought a darker gray applied in different stripes might be interesting. Check out this article; Types of Wood Graining Tools.

I just wanted to share that I used your tutorial a couple of months ago and had fabulous results! I wish I could share a pic of how my table turned out! Thank you for an excellent job of explaining this technique! Can you use any brand of paint? Thank you. You can use any kind of paint just make sure the surface is prepped well. But have to say, I am really liking it so far! Do you know if they are still making the minwax wipes? Thanks again for a great tutorial!!
Is Arid plains in the brown family? It looks more grey on screen. Thanks so much. This is awesome. I just bought a VERY heavy, seems like well built laminate drop leaf table. Possible a little darker wood colors. What colors would you suggest?
Also mixing…. Hi there! Do you think you could do this on a laminate wood coffee table? Looks great! What colors and ratios did you use on the posterboard? Were trying to faux woodgrain and glaze a weathered tobacco finish on our dining room table right now. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed.
