This versatile Chalk Paint for Furniture can be used on almost any surface. With incredible sticking power it can be used on wood, laminate, metal and more making it the perfect paint for beginners and those who want to transform furniture with minimum prep.

Its chalky appearance and flat, matte finish can transform your furniture from tired and worn to a creative, unique piece for your home. 

Use on modern or vintage furniture, chairs and even doors or kitchen cabinets.

Chalk Paint can be layered and used thickly to create a rustic, textured vibe. It can also be easily distressed to show colours underneath or reveal some of the wood underneath the paint. For texture it is best to use a natural bristle brush when applying the Chalk Paint to furniture. If you are wanting a smoother finish then a flat, synthetic brush is better.

If you prefer a sleek, modern look then this can be achieved with Chalk Paint. Adding a touch of water or dipping the tips of your brush in water before painting can help you to get a smooth finish.
