Product Information

First, look at your chalk paint and read the manufacturer's specifications. If it is very viscous, it is advisable to dilute it with water. This will allow the paint to be atomised and applied more easily, saving material. Untreated wood does not need to be prepared beforehand. However, if the wood is new, it may still contain sap. If resin leaks out, this will discolour the chalk paint. In such cases, it is best to apply a primer beforehand.

A chalk paint's coverage claims should be taken with a grain of salt because of how widely varying each project is. Darker woods, for example, will require more product or coats to cover, especially if you’re using a lighter paint color. If you're going for a weathered look, full coverage might not be that important. You might even like the way the wood looks when it shows through. All things considered, 1 ounce of chalk paint will typically cover 1 to 3 square feet. Smooth, non-absorbent surfaces such as glass or metal should be briefly roughened beforehand so that the chalk paint adheres better and therefore lasts longer. This fast drying, water-based formulation is environmentally friendly and offers great coverage on manysurfaces.Note that chalk paint usually preserves the structure of the tool you used to apply the paint. So if you use a brush or a roller, the paint cannot be spread smoothly. Of course, this is not necessarily a disadvantage – for certain effects this may actually be desirable. If you want a stronger brush structure, natural hair such as pig bristles is ideal; plastic bristles create a more subtle pattern. This chalk paint, like most others, is versatile and can be used on a wide variety of surfaces like wood and glass.
