This 120ml Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Amsterdam Green is perfect for DIY enthusiasts and professional decorators looking to quickly transform furniture and interior spaces with minimal prep. Its key benefit is the exceptional adhesion to most surfaces without sanding or priming, saving significant time. A slight caveat is that the paint requires sealing with wax or lacquer for durability. It's a water-based, non-toxic formula known for its rich, velvety, matte finish that often requires only one coat.

In most cases, no. Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is designed to adhere to most surfaces with minimal to no sanding or priming. Always ensure the surface is clean and dry, and perform a test patch if you are unsure.
Drying time is typically 1-2 hours between coats, depending on ambient temperature and humidity. For sealing with wax or lacquer, wait until the paint is thoroughly dry.
The approximate coverage is 13 square meters per litre. The 120ml pot will cover approximately 1.56 square meters.
Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is primarily designed for interior use. While it can be used on exterior items, it must be thoroughly sealed with a durable exterior-grade lacquer and may require more frequent maintenance than interior projects.
Once the Chalk Paint is completely dry, apply Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax using a lint-free cloth or a Wax Brush. Work the wax into the paint and wipe away any excess. For a more durable or water-resistant finish, Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Lacquer can be used instead of or over wax.
Yes, Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is water-based, non-toxic, and has ultra-low VOCs, making it child-friendly and safe for use on furniture that children will use, provided it is properly sealed.
Yes, Annie Sloan Chalk Paint adheres well to most surfaces, including gloss paint, without the need for priming or sanding, as long as the gloss surface is clean and stable.
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. If painting over a very glossy or slick surface, a light scuff sand may improve adhesion, or apply a test patch first to confirm. Check that any old finishes are stable.
Apply paint with smooth, even strokes. Avoid overworking the paint. Ensure you are using the correct brush or roller for the desired finish. Allow adequate drying time between coats.
This can occur if the paint is not properly sealed. Ensure you apply a generous and even coat of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or Lacquer once the paint is fully dry. Buff off excess wax gently.
If the paint has thickened slightly, you can add a tiny amount of water (a teaspoon per litre) and stir thoroughly. Avoid adding too much water, as this can affect the paint's consistency and coverage.
Setup: Ensure the surface you intend to paint is clean and dry. Remove any loose or flaking old paint, varnish, or wallpaper. For best results, perform a small test patch on an inconspicuous area first to check adhesion and colour.
Compatibility: Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is highly versatile and adheres to most surfaces, including wood (painted, varnished, or raw), metal, brick, concrete, plaster, and even fabric. It works well over existing paint and varnishes.
Care: Once painted and sealed with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or Lacquer, clean surfaces with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, especially on waxed finishes. Tools such as brushes and rollers should be cleaned immediately after use with soap and water.
