Wow she's adorable!

@ThomasFinch1 hmmmm. that's weird. I don't use a poly coat, just paint. how long are you waiting after you've painted it to beat it up? maybe the paint has just not had enough time to cure. it can take any where from one to three weeks for paint to really get hard, especially if you've applied several layers. maybe try that?

I use Acrylic Latex based paint as well, but I cant get it chips with chains like that. Its too flexible. I'm using regular Latex paint that you'd paint your walls with. Maybe I need a paint thats more Acrylic that Latex?! Any Suggestions?!
Do I need to put a light poly coat over the paint and THEN hit with chains to create chipping?

@ThomasFinch1 hello! I use an acyrlic latex based paint.

hi love this! just wondering how long you leave the stain on before wiping it off. also do you used any type of clear top coat after you are done or is the staining the last step? thanks!

@jessorourke9 I'm so bad at checking my youtube comments, sorry for the delayed response. I don't let it sit very long, maybe a few minutes tops. It can sometimes take a few days to dry, but it dries nice and hard with a little bit of a sheen. No need for a clear coat.

Thank you so much for sharing your secrets. I am wondering what kind of sprayer you use. I purchased a sprayer but I returned it after trying to use it. Yours looks like it works great. Also, do you have to water down the paint before it will work in the sprayer. Thanks for the info.
and I agree with the previous commenter- you are darling. Very photogenic. Great for videos - maybe someone will see this and give you your own show : )

@RondaJane Hi! Since I published this video I have purchased a new spray gun (several actually). The one I currently use is a Graco TrueCoat and it is awesome! I would highly recommend it. I posted an article all about this gun and how to use it on my website. Oh, and it requires NO thinning, which is great.
