  The properties of this unique formula are as follows:
  • it can be used all over the house and garden – Chalk Paint™ adheres to numerous surfaces, including: wood, concrete, metal, brass, plastic, glass, brick, stone, terracotta and even fabric
  • it can be used without preparation – due to its strong, sticking power and dense consistency, no priming or sanding is necessary – no removing of old paint, varnish or wax is required - you can paint straight over nearly all existing surfaces
  • it dries quickly – with a beautiful velvety matt finish
  • it produces extensive coverage – the highly concentrated formula covers approximately 13 sq metres per litre, equivalent to a small dresser and one coat is usually sufficient
  • it allows you to create your own colours - no mixing is required before use, but you can easily mix two or more Chalk Paint™ colours to create your own shade
  • it allows you to achieve paint effects simply – ie dilute Chalk Paint™ with water to make a wash to feature a wood grain; thicken it overnight - by leaving the lid off - to create a chippy look; distress it with fine sandpaper or add Annie Sloan Dark Wax to change the depth of colour
  • brushes wash out easily – simply with soap and water
  • it is durable – and works well with Clear Annie Sloan Soft Wax to seal furniture, walls and floors, or other painting projects around the house and garden
  • it has eco credentials – Chalk Paint™ is water-based and non-toxic. It is lead free, EG free and virtually odour free. It is naturally low in VOCs making it ideal for those who are sensitive to traditional paints.
