Rubio Monocoat color for Restoration Hardware dupe?

[jordanrossbell]

Hey everyone, new here. I was wondering if anyone is like me and likes to make furniture that resembles restoration hardware pieces but out of solid hardwood and good construction. I am wanting to do a cloud sofa table and also my version of their coffee table. Has anyone come across a color that is very similar to their "weathered grey" color? I have searched. The species will be on white oak. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

On white oak I’ve used slate grey and silvered grey.  I had the best results bleaching the wood first and then using the Rubio,  It matched the weather Grey look better.

  Have you considered the Rubio Fumed product?

Thanks! What prduct did you use to bleach the wood?

I had looked into fumed. It was definitely an option. I didnt want a barn wood look though and some of the pics I saw looked that way to me. But it is def still a consideration. I just wondered if anyone had a color that they had used that came out really similar. some good ideas so far, they are appreciated!

I use Rubio all the time on my furniture I sell. With using white oak you need pre color aqua and ash grey to achieve the weathered grey.
