FAQs

Do I need to sand before using Rust-Oleum Chalky Furniture Paint?

Generally, no. However, lightly sanding glossy surfaces can improve adhesion.

How many coats of paint are needed?

One coat is usually sufficient, but a second coat may be needed for certain colours or surfaces.

Can I use this paint on outdoor furniture?

While it can be used, it's recommended to apply a suitable exterior topcoat for protection against the elements.

How do I achieve a distressed look?

Apply two different colours of paint. Once dry, lightly sand the surface to reveal the base coat.

What is the best way to clean my painted furniture?

Wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Can I use a roller instead of a brush?

Yes, a roller can be used for a smoother finish. Use a roller suitable for water-based paints.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

The paint typically dries to the touch in about an hour.

Do I need to use a primer?

No, priming is not usually required with this paint.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean and degreased. Lightly sand glossy surfaces before painting.

Uneven finish or brush marks.

Apply the paint in thin, even coats. Use a high-quality brush or roller. Allow the paint to self-level.

Colour is not as expected.

Ensure you have the correct colour and that the existing surface colour is not affecting the final result. A second coat may be required.

Paint is chipping or flaking.

Make sure the surface is properly prepared. Apply a finishing wax or lacquer for added protection.
