FAQs

What surfaces can I use PlastiKote Chalk Finish Spray on?

It can be used on virtually any interior or exterior surface, including wood, metal, plastic, ceramic, glass, and stone.

Is this spray paint suitable for outdoor furniture?

Yes, it can be used on exterior surfaces. For items exposed to harsh weather, applying a protective topcoat is recommended for longevity.

How long does it take to dry?

The touch dry time is typically around 15-20 minutes, with recoating possible after 1 hour. Full curing can take longer, depending on conditions.

Do I need to use a primer before applying?

For best results and adhesion, it is recommended to clean and prepare the surface thoroughly. Priming may be beneficial on very porous or challenging surfaces, but is often not required if the surface is properly cleaned and lightly abraded.

Can I paint over existing paint?

Yes, as long as the existing paint is sound and clean. Lightly sanding glossy surfaces will improve adhesion.

How do I clean the sprayed surface?

Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing.

What is the coverage of one can?

A 400ml can typically covers approximately 1.5 to 2 square meters, depending on the surface and application thickness.

Is the 'Classic Duck Egg' colour matte or glossy?

This is a chalk-effect spray, which inherently provides a matte finish.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray pattern or splattering

Ensure the can is adequately shaken. Clean the nozzle by inverting the can and spraying. Maintain a consistent spraying distance of 25-30 cm.

Paint not adhering to the surface

The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure it is clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. Lightly sand glossy surfaces before application.

Drips or runs forming on the surface

You may be applying the paint too thickly or holding the can too close. Apply in multiple thin, even coats, allowing adequate drying time between each layer. Increase spraying distance.

Chalky or powdery finish after drying

This is normal for a chalk finish. For a smoother feel or added protection, apply a clear matte sealant or topcoat once the paint is fully cured.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Achieves a popular chalk-style finish with ease.
  • Can be used on a wide variety of materials and surfaces.
  • The classic duck egg colour is versatile and timeless.
  • Water-based formula means no strong chemical odours.
  • Aerosol application is convenient for quick projects.

Cons

  • Requires careful application to avoid drips or uneven coverage.
  • May require multiple thin coats for best results.
  • Not suitable for high-moisture areas without a protective topcoat.
  • The chalk finish can be porous and may require sealing for heavy-use items.
  • Colour representation can vary slightly depending on the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or rust. Lightly sand glossy surfaces for better adhesion.
  2. Shake the aerosol can vigorously for at least two minutes before use. Shake periodically during application.
  3. Test spray on an inconspicuous area first.

Compatibility:

This spray can be used on a wide range of interior and exterior surfaces, including wood, metal, plastic, ceramic, and stone. It is not recommended for direct contact with food or for use on flexible surfaces. For high-traffic areas or surfaces prone to moisture, applying a clear sealant or topcoat after the chalk paint has fully cured is advised for added durability.

Care:

Clean the spray nozzle after each use by inverting the can and spraying for a few seconds until clear propellant emerges. Store the can in a cool, dry place. To clean painted surfaces, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
