FAQs

Do I need to prime before painting?

No, priming is not required on most surfaces. However, ensure the surface is clean and free from contaminants.

Can I use this paint on metal?

Yes, but you need to ensure the metal surface is suitably primed first.

Is this paint safe for children's furniture?

Yes, Rust-Oleum Chalky Furniture Paint is toy safe, tested to BS EN 71-3: 2013 + A1:2014.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

Drying times can vary. Refer to the product label for specific drying instructions.

Can I use this paint outdoors?

This paint is designed for indoor use. Outdoor use is not recommended.

How do I achieve a distressed look?

Apply two similar colors and distress the furniture by lightly sanding the topcoat to reveal the base coat. Finish with Rust-Oleum Furniture Finishing Wax or Lacquer.

What should I do if the tin has surface rust?

Some tins may have surface rust due to warehouse condensation, but the paint inside is unaffected.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from any grease, wax, or loose paint. Lightly sand glossy surfaces to improve adhesion.

Color is uneven after one coat.

Apply a second coat of paint. Ensure the first coat is completely dry before applying the second coat.

Brush strokes are visible.

Use a high-quality brush or a foam roller for a smoother finish. Apply the paint evenly and avoid over-brushing.
