Woolie Inc 100607 The Lambwool Faux Applicator Tool Finishing Kits/Applicators

This thing works great. I looked up the brand's youtube channel and watched the Color Meshing video and followed those instructions. I've painted 2 bathrooms with this so far and the effect was cool on both, I'm glad I bought this tool to do the job. And I bought the small version which was great for little spaces, corners, and touch ups.The instructions say to keep the edges wet in order to keep the paint from drying. Definitely follow that advice. I didn't follow that advice first time and then I got paint dried hard around the edges and wouldn't rinse off. No worries, a few days later I trimmed the hard crusty bits off the edges and the woolie still worked great to paint a second room. But I mention this because there is another review that says you can't use it multiple times because the paint dries crusty. You can, if you keep the edges wet so they don't dry. Or if you trim the dried parts off later (although obviously there is a limit to how much you can trim off before the tool's no good anymore).

As described, Worked great

I bought the Woolie for one project - three walls in my potting shed. I watched the video for color meshing and went to work adding turquoise walls to a potting shed with cedar trim and one wall with black chalkboard painted pegboard. It was so much fun seeing the walls come alive with color, and it was so easy. As I am nearly 80 years old, I knew I could not finish even one wall without stopping, so I chose the color-meshing technique instead of the color-glazing technique. I was not nearly as neat as the woman in the Woolie video, but using the Woolie has much less paint waste, at least for me, than painting an entire wall with a brush. During the 3 days it took me to complete the walls, I rinsed out the Woolie twice and let it air dry overnight. The first time, it dried nearly as soft and fluffy as it was when it was new. The second time that I rinsed it, it was even less fluffy but certainly useable. In finishing up my painting, I did wish I had purchased a couple of the small Woolies to take care of some small areas. It would have been easier. If I ever venture into faux painting again, I will certainly buy a Woolie.

Didn't work like I thought it would. Did hold up though.

I do quite a bit of faux finishing work. I saw this in a video and decided to add it to my kit. It works exactly as shown. Excellent for blending glazes. It's very predictable as a little patting will leave a stipple look and more patting for smoother blends. Clean up with cold water was easy.

This was my first time using The Woolie and I am completely in love with it. I want to paint every room like this. I watched a video on YouTube and then just dove in. I chose five different colors, two light colors and three dark colors. I think my two light colors were too similar, but it still looks great. The whole project took about 5 hours, but that includes taping which took an eternity because I am less than five feet tall and a little afraid of the ladder.

I painted my dining room and it turned out well. I thought I would be able to reuse the woolie for a second project after cleaning it as indicated. It did not clean up well and is not reusable. If you're planning on using for a single project and disposing afterwards, you would probably not be disappointed. I was planning to use again and that is not possible. It did not clean as advertised or shown in the video. Would purchase again, but was feeling misled that it could be cleaned and used again. Not my first painting project and the paint used was a water based latex SW paint.

I was not happy with the paint on my living room walls. I was expecting more of a golden color, but it came out way too pastel yellow for my tastes. I decided to do a faux finish to add a darker glaze over the paint and thought I'd give this a try. I am so happy I did. It made very quick work of things, once I got the hang of it, and it was also easy to go back over the first section of wall I had done once I started getting the results I liked better. You can really control how thick or thin the glaze goes on. I may go back over another section, but that was on me, not the Woolie. I am thinking of changing ,y repainting ideas for another room so I can use this again and play with some other ideas.
