Chalky Furniture Paint Chalk White 750ml

Used this to do windowsills with oak effect and great for that, the colour is quite yellow so as a stand alone I wouldnt use it but with the wax layer worked great! Easy to use

I used this to refresh paint a wicker rattan chest of drawers. Really nice it does have a nice chalk look finish. One coat was enough. Could be thinner but it may just be the way I painted it. The thickness and the look of the finish is affected by the finish of the wicker even though it says no need to sand on the tin. Overall I would definitely recommend this over satin finish paint for wicker and furniture.

Used 2x tins and my kitchen looks completely different! Perfect if you’re renovating on a budget just note that it come off if cleaning hence 4 stars not 5

Good quality paint and lovely colour

Good product

Delighted with the colour and performance of this paint. Perfectly matching our kitchen.

This is furniture paint with a flat matt or "chalky" finish. It is not chalk paint, and is not described as such. It has a flat satinwood-type finish. If you want true chalk paint for a shabby-chic multi-layer effect this is not for you. Look for chalk paint and only buy that. I have used it before and to be honest I prefer it. Couple of points you may note: Firstly, the instructions say that "most" surfaces do not need to be rubbed down (abraded) with sandpaper before applying the first coat. If you are painting pre-varnished or pre-painted wood (which is probably why most buy it) it does have to be abraded, in my opinion, if you want it to last. Or it may not not take knocks without chipping. If you don't abrade it then I suggest you clean off any potential waxy or greasy deposits from polishes or fingerprints by cleaning it down with fine wire wool and white spirit. Then wipe over with a damp cloth and allow to dry fully. Secondly in spite of the claims made about it you almost certainly will need to apply more than one coat. I can't see how one would ever be enough. Thirdly, give it a few days to fully cure then apply a chalk finish wax for waterproofing, if anything liquid is ever likely to come in contact with it. This also seems to make the finish more robust. Be very careful with the furniture the first few days especially as I found it liable to chip quite easily until it cured fully. I'm reasonably happy to recommend it subject to the above points. Time will tell whether I would have been better to use true chalk paint.

This was a wee test project to see how well this paint when on before upcycling 2 x pine wardrobes and 2 x chest of drawers. I must say that it is particularly easy to use with very little, if any, preparations required. Obviously, as with all painting projects, the surface has to be clean and grease free. I wiped over our pine table with some £ shop white spirit, and that helped to prepare the surface by taking off the beeswax coating on our coffee table. It only took about 2.5 hours of plodding with a mini roller and brush to cover all the upper surfaces, and side panels. I was in no rush as I find it quite therapeutic and this is a job that was started at 8 o'clock at night when the kids were settled. I did the table 'feet' and lower surfaces on the second night, after allowing the table to dry and flipping it over. I would say that the paint went on better with a brush, rather than a roller, which left it looking patchy. Also, the brush finish looked better to me in all respects, but this meant paint went on thicker, and coverage was lessened considerably. Other reviewers may well have more experience in this area, or have different results, but that's just my opinion. The chalk paint DOES chip easily, and you will have to seal it to prevent this happening. I still have to do this and will post a few more pictures when I've used the recommended Furniture Finishing Wax to seal the table. There's about 10% of the tin left and I'll need to use this to give the tabletop a 3rd coat prior to sealing. Overall, a nice easy solution for a quick (or relaxing) upcycle project. I've only given 4* for coverage, but other than that, it's a big thumbs up, especially for an upcycling novice like me. Update 17th November 2019: I finally got round to putting a protective layer over the top of the chalk paint. I chose to use a clear Ronseal Varnish instead of the recommended Furniture Finishing Wax. For me this was to ensure a good hardy child proof seal over the top, and I am overall very happy with the results. There's been no damage to the table with the day to day hitting or banging of toy dinosaurs or anything else on the table. The final pictures uploaded will hopefully give you an idea of how our table now looks.

J'ai repeint une petite table d'appoint en bois, déjà blanche mais qui avait besoin d'être rénovée. J'ai déjà utilisé cette peinture à la craie Rust Oleum d'une autre couleur pour des tabourets, Encre Bleu. Superbe. J'ai également acheté la cire de finition Rust Oleum. Indispensable à mon sens pour une belle finition, un beau rendu des couleurs et une protection des meubles. Cette peinture à la craie est de très bonne qualité, une belle crème facile à passer, bien couvrante. J'ai utilisé à chaque fois un mini rouleau en microfibres et en partie un petit pinceau.

ottimo prodotto

Super Farbe!

Es la primera vez que utilizo una pintura de éste tipo y la verdad es que el resultado me a gustado mucho. Aunque es apta para diluir con agua yo no lo he hecho, tan sólo he intentado darle un toque un poco vintage. He pintado un arcón de Ikea el cual el color original era wengue bastante oscuro. No quería pintarlo todo de blanco por lo que he dado brochazos no uniformes, tan sólo una capa. Luego he lijado algunas partes. El resultado es el que aparece en las fotos. El color, blanco antiguo, es el tono final esperado. Hay que tener en cuenta que si se lija un poco hace bastante polvo, por algo es “a la tiza” pero se limpia muy bien. Lo mejor de todo es el aspecto final (las fotos son sin el barniz). Bastante contento con el resultado, ahora me toca cambiar el aspecto del cabecero de la cama. Tal vez a única pega sea el precio ya que en una tienda de pinturas de mi localidad lo he visto por 5€ menos de lo que me costado éste (esto me pasa por ir a lo loco). Pero bueno, el resultado me gusta por lo que lo doy por bien gastado.

Bien couvrante. Une couche suffit! J’ai repeins 2 meubles et je ne suis qu’à la moitié du pot. Couleur bien blanche et non crème. Bel effet, je recommande.
