Chalk Paint™ is the versatile furniture paint developed by Annie Sloan in 1990. With no need for sanding or priming, you can simply pop open the tin, roll up your sleeves, dip in your brush and apply paint to furniture. Works on wood, metal, laminate, concrete, indoors, outdoors and beyond. You might have noticed there’s no sanding, no priming. I’m just directly on. So no priming, no prepping, no sanding, just paint! Next, apply Chalk Paint™ Wax in the same manner as the paint. Use a brush or lint-free cloth to apply in all directions. Work in sections removing any excess with a lint-free cloth as you go. You want to make sure every bit of paintwork has been waxed. If I don’t wax it at all, my hands will mark it. So you’ve got to wax it to seal it. So it’s to do with look and it’s to do with protection as well. Here’s the Clear Wax. It is wax that works with the paint and it absorbs into the paint really easily. So this is clear – looks white, it’s clear. And you need to put on plenty. And again you’re not doing this thing of going … very careful, really careful. No, go for it! Absolutely go for it! Don’t worry about… you can do whatever direction you want, you don’t have to do it all in one direction.

If you’re looking to paint you furniture for the first time, look no further than this step-by-step tutorial. Chalk Paint™ is a fantastic tool for giving your furniture a whole new look in next to no time. You don’t need to be a professional painter to achieve stunning results – you just need the paint colour of your choice, a brush and some Chalk Paint™ Wax to protect your finish. Struggling to choose a colour? The Chalk Paint™ Colour Card uses real paint swatches to give you an accurate colour sample. Second coat now and it’s the same as the first coat! So lots of people say ‘Gosh, you make it look so easy and it’s not so easy’ – it really, really is easy. Remember, if you paint it and you go ‘Oh, I don’t like it’… Well, maybe it’s the wrong colour, and it’s to do with the room you’re in. So maybe it needs to be blue or red or green or pink…try another colour, it won’t take long. This won’t take long at all. After painting, seal indoor furniture with Chalk Paint® Wax. On floors, seal with Chalk Paint® Lacquer. Take a look at our Techniques & Tips section for more ideas and inspiration to help you get started.
