Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Ensure the surface is clean and free from dust, grease, and loose debris. For heavily stained or greasy surfaces, a degreaser is recommended. Stir the paint thoroughly before use; do not shake. Apply with a good quality brush, such as an Annie Sloan Soft Brush, in broad strokes for a textured look, or smoother strokes for a more uniform finish.
Compatibility: Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is compatible with most surfaces including wood, metal, brick, concrete, plaster, MDF, laminate, and fabric. It can be applied over existing paint, varnish, or wallpaper. For maximum durability and to achieve different finishes (e.g., aged, limed, or a more robust matte), finish with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or Chalk Paint Lacquer. Avoid mixing with other paint brands.
Care: Clean brushes and tools immediately after use with soap and water. For painted surfaces, a light dusting with a soft cloth is usually sufficient. For deeper cleaning, use a damp (not wet) cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, especially on waxed surfaces, as this can damage the finish.
