A Fun DIY Project with Unicorn Spit and Famowood Glaze Coat
Project DIYs can be done in many ways, with many products. But unlike many of the products available today, Unicorn Spit Gel Stain and Glaze works on wood, glass, metal, fabric, concrete and more! This unique product is a DIYer’s dream! In a few simple steps you can create a masterpiece using 14 non-toxic colors in as vibrant or opaque of a shade as you like. Use it as paint or dilute with water to create a gel, stain, glaze, white wash or antiquing tint.
Famowood Glaze Coat is an amazing finishing product that works great with Unicorn Spit! This glaze coating is a super easy to-apply pour-on epoxy coating and dries with a clear, high gloss finish. This product is amazing because it is versatile enough to use on most surfaces smooth or rough, stained or painted. Are you ready to get crafty yet?

I created this beautiful step stool using Unicorn Spit Gel Stain and Glaze and Famowood Glaze Coat. I’ll walk you through this project to help inspire your own amazing DIY masterpiece using Unicorn Spit products!
Before 
After
Unicorn Spit Gel Stain and Glaze
I selected the color Zia Teal for the top of the stool, and diluted it with 50% water to create a stain. I then whitewashed the top of the stool with White Ning. The base of the stool is painted in White Ning.
Step 1: Staining the top of the stool with Zia Teal
Pick your color 
Mix with water to create your desired consistency 
Use a paint brush to brush on your project 
Brush with the grain 
Continue brushing with the grain 
Be sure to add a thick layer 
Let it sit and absorb into the wood like a stain 
Wipe the excess off after a few minutes 
Allow the stain to dry for about 15 minutes
Step 2: Whitewashing the top of the stool with White Ning
Use the white paint and a clean brush 
Squeeze white paint onto the tip of the brush 
Smudge the white paint along the edges 
Drag the brush back and forth, smearing the white paint in 
Continue washing the white paint over the top of the stool 
Allow the top to dry completely
Step 3: Painting the base of the stool with White Ning
Use a clean brush and white paint 
Brush the paint on the stool 
Try to brush with the grain where possible 
Continue painting the whole stool 
Paint a second coat if desired 
Allow to dry completely
Famowood Glaze Coat
After the stool has completely dried, you are ready to add Famowood Glaze Coat. For a stool this is great because I know it will get a lot of use, and I wanted to protect the surface from wear! Here is how I applied the glaze to the top of the stool, but for more detailed instructions visit here.
Use the glaze kit, 3 plastic cups, and a plastic spatula 
Pour equal parts hardener and resin in separate cups 
Pour the hardener into the resin 
Mix for 6 minutes 
Pour mixture into a new plastic cup 
Mix for an additional 6 minutes 
Pour the mixture on top of the stool 
Careful not to get it on the legs 
Use the plastic spatuala to carefully spread the glaze over the entire surface, wiping any drips off quickly 
Finish spreading the mixture within 15-20 minutes, it will self level 
Use a flame over any bubbles right away to remove them 
Allow the glaze to cure in a 70 degree, dust-free environment for 8-72 hours
The finished project
This project was fun and easy, and turned out great! I love how easy these products are to use, and how versatile they are! Let me know in the comments what project you would complete with Unicorn Spit Gel Stain and Glaze and/or Famowood Glaze Coat.
