I am painting my wood cabinets and am trying to create the "stressed look." I am told I must apply the first color, sand parts off, then paint the second color. But I have a few questions:

1. Does the darker color go first or second; and

2. Do I need to glaze or mix glaze with the second application?

Thanks for any advice.
