Shabby Chic Chalk Based Furniture Paint, Metallic Pink - 250 ml | Distressed Matt Finish for Furniture, Home Decor or DIY Projects | Interior & Exterior | Non-Sand, Suitable for Wood, Plastic & Metal

Great paint. Wasn’t too strong a smell to apply. Had to apply a couple of coats. Used over mdf white painted donut wall. Gave it a new lease of life. Dried really quickly was able to apply two coats in the one day.

Painted an Ikea Hemnes tv cabinet and matching bookshelf that's pine and fibreboard stained white (not laminated), on the first go it almost covered, the second layer completely covered without a flaw, and without extensive watching out to ensure there'll be no misses, just a simple quick paint over the first layer and the result is rich deep black colour. I painted the side of the bookshelf as it stood and not a sign of dripping on the surface - as it's not as thick as AS, and with AS it's a struggle to avoid not painting a too thick coat that then results in massive amount of flowing paint that dries as is quite quickly (I water now every AS quart right after opening to get to the thickness of THIS paint.) Important note that I simply washed down the furniture with dishwashing detergent and dried with kitchen towel before the painting to avoid oiliness but I didn't sand or prime or anything. Just got on with the painting afterwards and it stuck to the surface like a dream. I used AS wax on it as that's what I had at home and it seems to have worked well, dried quickly and just like on an AS paint. The paint coverage is smooth - probably not the best paint if someone wants visible brush strokes on their furniture but this is perfect for smoother hand painted finish. It dries quickly but still allows to 'go back' and correct any mistakes in the first couple minutes after painting if it'd be needed (but it won't be, with this there are no 'the layer is too quick and began to 'melt down' on the side' issues). Optimal. Another characteristic to point out is - probably due to it having less than AS - it sheds way less chalk when distressing. So I wasn't bathing in black chalk when I distressed these contrary to my other paint jobs which covered me and the floor in chalk when doing the same amount of distressing or even less - I distressed every edge of every piece on the black painted bits and there was no mounting black powder on my floor afterwards, my hands weren't all black from it. I distress before waxing so I can wax the final finish, and it was easy with this, really easy. Overall, I had 5 pieces to paint, 2x with this, and 3x with AS colours and I have to say the experience with this has put the AS to shame in a way that it was a hassle to struggle with AS when this was so easy. That's the best to describe it - I removed the books and TV in the morning, painted the two coats, distressed, waxed, allowed to dry from the evening and the next morning packed everything back on and it's just perfect. So the texture and colour both perfect, if someone is looking for pitch black paint this is it and it'll be very easy to use. The only negative attribute (and why I rather water up other paint brands for other colours) is the price which is way too high, 250ml for £13 and you get a litre of AS for £19 which from this would be what, £52? Way too pricey for what it is.

Excellent gold paint, really good metallic gold colour. Great coverage. Painted my metal candle sticks and they look fantastic

nice creamy paint, easy to use, bit expensive

Very pleased with the quality of the metallic paint, easy to apply and really nice results

Strange paint - as I was painting over an old chest of drawers (pine coloured) I rubbed it down and then painted on a white undercoat to stop the pine colour possibly bleeding through. The first coat of paint barely touched it leaving what looked like a streaky brown colour. I gave the chest of drawers another 3 coats and although it finally looked Antique Gold it was very streaky. Not sure if this is the look it is supposed to give or not .......... I have used other chalk paint in the past in varous colours and they usually cover in 2 coats and never look streaky. This paint is very watery so if I decide to paint other furniture in a gold I will not use this brand again

Bought for diy Christmas ideas. Easy to use and looks good.

Really nice paint, went on nicely and looked lovely, would recommend.

war leicht aufzustreichen und sieht schön aus, haben Gartenmöbel so neu bemalt!

ottimo prodotto già sperimentato, facile da applicare, copertura perfetta senza dover scarteggiare il mobile vecchio, asciuga velocemente, vellutato al tocco, da applicare sempre col rullino per un effetto omogeneo

Che dire non sono un'esperta ma ho tinteggiato un mobile e devo dire che ' e' fantastica ,molto coprente non puzza e puo' essere utilizzata anche dai meno esperti .A differenza di molti che hanno avuto problemi con l'imballaggio a me e' arrivata perfetta il tappo bloccato con 4 graffette .devo dire ottimo acquisto .lo consiglio a chi deve fare piccoli lavori ma anche lavori piu grandi perche 'la resa e' ottima.

Sin lugar a dudas la mejor pintura a la tiza que he probado,lo he utilizado para pintar unas puertas,y ahora he vuelto a repetir para pintar un mueble,se aplica super bien,cubre un monton y menos espesa que otras marcas que dejan la marca de las pinceladas,la doy un 10.

This paint is awful. Horrible coverage. Splatters everywhere. And runs like crazy. Only thing it has going for it is the color; it's the bubblegum pink the tween client requested.
