Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is for DIY enthusiasts and professional decorators looking to easily transform furniture and interior surfaces. Its key benefit is the minimal prep required, allowing for quick application and adherence to most materials without sanding or priming. A potential caveat is the need to seal the paint with wax or lacquer for durability and desired finish.

No, typically you do not need to sand or prime. Chalk Paint is designed to adhere to most surfaces with minimal preparation. However, always ensure the surface is clean and dry, and remove any loose coatings.
Chalk Paint dries quickly, usually within 1-2 hours depending on humidity and temperature. This allows for subsequent coats or finishing steps to be applied relatively soon after.
The approximate coverage is 13 square meters per litre. A 120ml pot will cover approximately 1.56 square meters.
Chalk Paint is suitable for a wide variety of surfaces including wood, metal, brick, concrete, plaster, floors, fabric, glass, plastic, and previously painted items.
Yes, for durability and to achieve your desired finish, Chalk Paint should be sealed with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or Chalk Paint Lacquer.
Clean your brushes and tools immediately after use with soap and water. Ensure all paint residue is removed before the paint dries.
Yes, Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is water-based, non-toxic, and has ultra-low VOCs (2.2g/l), making it child-friendly and safe for use on furniture that children will interact with, once properly sealed.
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. Remove any old, peeling paint or finishes. For very glossy surfaces, a light scuff can improve adhesion, though not strictly required.
Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred. Apply thin, even coats. Allow adequate drying time between coats. If using a brush, use smooth, consistent strokes.
Ensure the paint is fully dry. Apply a coat of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax to enhance the sheen and depth of the colour. For a higher sheen, apply a second coat of wax.
This can happen if the paint is applied too thickly or if the surface was not smooth to begin with. Once dry and sealed with wax, light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper can smooth it out, or apply another thin coat of paint if needed.
