FAQs
Can I use this on outdoor furniture?
This paint is designed for general use, but it is not specifically weather-proofed for long-term outdoor exposure. It is best used for indoor furniture or protected garden ornaments.
Do I need to sand furniture before painting?
While the paint is designed to adhere well, a light sanding is recommended for high-gloss surfaces to ensure the best possible bond.
How long should I wait before applying wax?
You should wait until the paint is thoroughly dry to the touch, typically several hours depending on environmental humidity, before applying wax.
Is this paint safe for children's furniture?
The formula is water-based and silicone-free, making it a common choice for indoor furniture. Always ensure the paint is fully cured and sealed before children handle the furniture.
Can I mix this with other colors?
Yes, Tableau Brighton Pink can be mixed with other colors in the range to create custom shades for your projects.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears streaky upon application.
Ensure you are using a quality brush and applying in thin, consistent layers. If the paint is too thick, slightly dampen your brush.
Finish looks dull or dusty.
This is characteristic of the matte finish. Apply a light coat of Tableau Furniture Wax to enrich the depth and create a slight sheen.
Paint is not adhering to a specific surface.
Check that the surface was cleaned of grease or wax. If the surface is very slick, lightly sand it with fine-grit sandpaper to create "tooth" for the paint.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your project, ensure the surface is dry and free from loose debris. While the paint is versatile, you may want to prime surfaces that are highly glossy or non-porous to ensure maximum adhesion.
- Shake the container well before use to ensure proper pigment distribution.
- Apply thin, even layers; two coats are generally recommended for full coverage.
- Allow the surface to dry completely before applying any topcoat.
- For a polished, durable finish, apply Tableau Furniture Wax over the fully cured paint.
For maintenance, clean brushes immediately with warm soapy water. Store the paint in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is sealed tightly to prevent premature drying.
