Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure your surface is clean and dry before application. If there are loose flakes of old paint or lacquer, remove them. Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a good quality brush. For best results, use Annie Sloan's own brushes.
Compatibility: Chalk Paint adheres to most surfaces including wood, metal, brick, concrete, plaster, floors, and fabric. It can be painted over existing paint, varnish, and even some plastics. Always perform a small test patch on an inconspicuous area to ensure adhesion and desired finish.
Care: After painting, allow the paint to dry for at least 1-2 hours. Once dry, seal the painted surface with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or Lacquer. Apply wax using a lint-free cloth or a wax brush, working it into the paint and wiping away any excess before leaving it to dry. For lacquered finishes, follow the instructions on the lacquer product. Clean brushes and tools immediately after use with soap and water.
