If you’ve discovered the fun of chalk paint, then you’ve probably realized that shopping for chalk paint is a bit different than shopping for a standard latex paint to paint a wall in your home.The glazes are also available in spray form which I have not yet tried. After using the glaze the finished piece should still be sealed with Matte Clear. Paint Colors Available To apply, simply use a bristle brush or a lint-free cloth and apply liberally. If you do opt for wax, ensure that every section has been covered. It's worth noting that wax can take up to two weeks to reach its full hardness, so be careful with the furniture in question.

'You can add paint, but it's much harder to take it away! Too much paint can lead to oozing, smudging and general messiness. Every time you dip your brush or roller, wipe it on a lint free cotton cloth or on your roller tray to remove excess product.'
