Shabby Chic Chalk Furniture Paint: Luxurious Chalk Finish Craft Paint for Home Decor, DIY, Wood Cabinets - All-in-One Paints with Rustic Matte Finish [Chalky White] - (8.5 oz Covers 32 sf)

I am hooked on this paint now. I was a bit surprised because the can is small. After using it I realized you do not need a huge can. This is a high quality product. I was amazed at the coverage. It dries with full coverage. It is a very matte finish which is beautiful. The texture is great. It is not high gloss which is what I was looking for. I am obsessed with this. I got it to paint a metal table and it looks so nice I keep using it. I’ve used it on metal stool legs and drawer pulls. This is now my go to product. I used antique gold and the color is perfect it is not brassy and looks classy

Very high quality paint …. Easy to apply! I will say it was kind of pricey for the small can.

This paint goes a long way and is great quality. It’s worth the price. I’ve applied it on wood, plastic and metal. The first coat goes on thin. The number of coats depends on the surface you are painting. The drying time is fast. There is no odor.

Really beautiful finish but goes on very streaky. You have to apply in one direction without overlap and very evenly to prevent it from being quite streaky. (unless you want that look.) Also, even to use this on a wall, I had to use 3 coats. I used also to paint built in closet cabinets/shelves (with laminated finish) without sanding first and it stuck really well but again, had to use many coats and be very careful to not streak. Using a painting sponge was very helpful but also left streaks at the edges if not very careful. Has a very satiny metallic finish which is quite pretty and required no polyacrylic or other protective finish. Be careful however, as this paint is very very thin and can easily drip and make a mess. Will rinse out of brushes but takes more effort than regular paint and sticks to skin to. Grape pink color is GORGEOUS and metallic grey is nice (silvery) as well. Went a surprisingly long way considering how many coats needed.

It is perfect! Matched the chairs I was working on.

Works really well- a true metallic with a great sheen! I am including a picture of my current project- the bottom drawer is actual metallic wallpaper, vs the top drawer which is painted with this paint. I still need to lightly sand and do another coat, but the two drawers blend almost perfectly in color and shine! I did use 3 coats of primer first. The paint is quite thin, and the wood that I was covering was quite dark, so it took about 4 coats- but it turned out better than other metallic paints that I have used, which have ended up more “grey and shimmery” than true metallic. Because it’s on the thinner side, it drips very easily, so more thin coats is better. But a little goes a long way! I still have more than half a can left after painting my whole vanity!

I am in love with chalk paint due to the aged look it produces and I purchased white and black chalk paint from other brand to paint 2 dressers, further mixing it to achieve the degrade grey: that paint was thick like marmelade, achieved great coverage in one coat (for black; white needed 3 layers) besides getting 1 litre for under 20 USD. This Shabby chic paint by contrast is simply terrible. I purchased white, black, silver and gold, each for just under 20 USD for 250ml - terrible value for money. Not only that: - the paint is like water (shake the can to hear how water thin it is if you are going to buy it) - the paint is at the bottom of the tin and even when shaking the tin many times, the paint was still very thin - this paint smells stronger than other brands of chalk paint I used. - I tried to use the silver paint to paint the lines on this dresser and I had to apply it so many times due to being so waterish; on black it looks a bit better but on the white side of the dresser if just terrible. The silver paint leaves some streaks and lines and when removing the tape to achieve the straight lines, some of the paint was taken with the tape. This never happened with other chalk paint brands. Reading the huge percentage of positive reviews, I conclude the Shabby Chic factory standards dropped. Thankfully the Amazon customer service was amazing due to our Prime membership.

Great product
