Product Information
Full details
Ronseal Chalky Furniture Paint is designed for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners looking to easily update furniture, doors, and cupboards with a durable, flat matt, chalky finish. Its key benefit is the 'no-prep' finish requiring no waxing, buffing, or lacquering for protection, offering a quick transformation for upcycling projects or a color refresh. A potential caveat is the requirement for specific room temperatures and adequate ventilation during application and drying.

Can I use this paint on exterior furniture?

Troubleshooting
Paint is not adhering well
Ensure the surface was properly prepared (sanded and cleaned) and free from dust or grease. Check that the room temperature is above 10°C.
Uneven finish or brush marks
Apply paint evenly with a good quality synthetic brush, following the direction of the wood grain. Avoid overworking the paint. Ensure consistent application pressure.
Paint is drying too quickly, causing drag
Work in smaller sections and ensure adequate ventilation but avoid direct drafts or excessive heat which can speed up drying excessively.
Surface feels sticky after drying
Ensure the paint has been applied in a well-ventilated area and the recommended drying times have been met. If still sticky, a further thin coat or longer drying period may be needed.
