I love there line of glazes but they are extremely thin which is usually a good thing, but for a richer effect I used that color and amped it up a little with my tint kit and sherwin williams made a batch based on that color with their glaze. They keep it on file for me. It's one of those, when all else fails I know they'll love this color type of things and the price point on the glaze can't be beat. I wish I had a better answer. Sorry! I call it Liquid Gold because it's money in a can! It’s actually a teak on a Lasting Impressions color called Topaz.

Gipson: It took me a while, too. :) For the Steady Brown glaze, I do use the latex version since I worry that the Color to Go may not be strong enough for durability on the wall, even with a quality glaze. I pretty much use the Color to Go-s for sample base painting only. BTW, what was your color? I'd love to test another tried-and-true one!

I have a color to go collection that almost rivals your own. I too discovered that not using latex paint in glaze is better. Too bad it only took me forever to figure that out! I have my own go to color similar to yours but I'm gonna try your color because I'm bored with mine. For the steady brown, do you just use it as a sample to work from or do you put the latex version into the glaze? I knew we were kindred spirits.

Nice SW collection, and impressively orderly. :) I get excited by paints and tints! Nice SW collection, and impressively orderly. :)
