Coverage & Sizes

Size Coverage (sq ft) Number of Coats Required

32 oz 100–140 sq ft 1–2 coats

Directions for How to Use Finishing Glaze

Clean the surface thoroughly. Sand if necessary to smooth rough patches.

Using a rag, brush, damp sponge, or spatula, apply a thin, even coat of Finishing Glaze.

Let the glaze absorb into the surface for 12–24 hours.

Wipe off any excess glaze after it’s absorbed.

Apply additional coats as needed. Typically, 1–2 coats will suffice for most surfaces.

Full curing takes approximately 30–60 days, depending on the thickness of the glaze applied.

Hints & Tips

For a smooth, professional finish, we recommend a cross-hatch method when applying with a brush.

If the glaze is too thick, thin it with RMP Pine Solvent or Half & Half.

Work in small sections to avoid drying marks or streaking.

Apply over Real Milk Paint after it has fully dried. If you need to distress the finish, Finishing Glazes help create a more natural look.

Consider sealing with RMP Low Sheen or Dead Flat Finishing Cream first to prevent the glaze from soaking too deeply into porous paint.
