Misty,
Did you test your oak table in Ebony??
See my reply to you above where you replied to Betty.
Looking for any pics of Ebony on orangey oak!
Thank you!!

Misty,
Did you do Ebony Briwax??
Any pictures?
I would love to do Ebony in hopes of a dark gray (not pure black) outcome on my own orangey oak cabinets!

Hi Brad, I’m not sure as there are so many variables at play. The wax was just one way that I have played down the orange in the cabinets. Check out my post on updating a wood kitchen here for more insight. Updating a 90s kitchen – WITHOUT Painting Cabinets!. Good luck to you!

If I put a second coat briwax bark brown, will that darken up the cabinets a bit?

I’m going for a rustic look (western) and will try Tudor Brown with Ebony to see how that works on my uppers. The lowers I’ve already done with black gel stain and distressing so fingers crossed. Thanks again.

I’m getting ready to replace all my paint grade cabinets and I love your look SO much. What would you recommend I do to achieve it—from a clean-slate starting point, that is.
Thanks!

Hi Misty, Yes I did take the cabinet doors off so that I could buff it more easily. And yes, buffing is just rubbing it in with a second cloth. Good luck!

Did you remove the cabinet doors when waxing? That seems easiest, right? And buffing is simply rubbing it with a second cloth? I’m debating between Tudor brown and ebony. I really like dark cabinets, but I’m worried the ebony won’t cover it enough! I have a table that is the oak and I’m going to test it on that first! Then the cabinets.

Hi Betty! Did you do the ebony? I’m scouring the internet looking for ebony over the oak. I already ordered it because the Tudor brown was out of stock. I’d love to see some pictures.
