Retique ItChalk Furniture Paint, 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), 49 Viridian

I have found a new favorite chalk paint!!! I have been looking for a chalk paint that covers well but comes in bright colors. I took a chance when I ordered this but I am in love!! The color on my phone is exactly the color that I received. It paints smoothly and is beautiful! I have already ordered more colors! Love it!!

I had a dining server that was passed down to me and was probably purchased in the 1970-1980s. Since it was in the family I didn’t want to just get rid of it since it is highly outdated, but also the word work is amazing and unfortunately they do not make furniture like this anymore.So I took a chance and said let me see if I can bring this piece up to date and make it modern. The hardware was a pain because they are a lot smaller holes than hardware that is made now. Therefore, I used some wood filler and sanded it down and made new holes for the hardware which was easy.I then painted the whole piece using this chalk paint. With a degreaser used first to clean, and then some light sanding, the paint went on with ease. It took about 2 coats of paint, with about 1-2 hours of drying in between and the piece looked brand new! I waited until the next day to add on the sealer, gave that about 24 hours to dry, added the hardware and now I have a brand new dining server!I also redid my dining room table! I chose the same gray to match, but painted the legs white and all I can saw is wow!!! Now I am constantly looking for furniture to revamp!

Love the thickness this brand has and the colors turned out so beautiful

Excelente calidad el color bello!!

I usually use the rustoleum brand chalk paint, but when I ordered it online the cans exploded in shipping and made a gigantic mess. So I decided to try this brand. It was shipped so carefully and arrived perfectly intact. The color choices were gorgeous as well. I used Gothic gray on my china cabinet project and I'm in love. I'm still waiting on more wallpaper to finish the piece, but I couldn't be happier with the paint. This huge cabinet didn't even take a whole container. I did 2 coats on the entire piece and I still have about and 8th of the jar left. I will definitely be buying this brand in the future.

I purchased a beautiful dining table years ago. Problem was the top was stained brown and the legs were black but I wanted the whole table black. I did a terrible job trying to refinish it, and ended up putting a table cloth on it to hide what I’d done. Didn’t expect it to take 6 years before I got around to fixing it but life happens. I sanded down my old botched paint job, applied 1 coat of Binz primer, three coats of this paint in midnight black, and two coats of satin spray polyurethane. (With drying time between all those coats, this project took 3 days.) I love my table even more now than when I first bought it! My husband was shocked at how beautiful it turned out, and all of our guests have raved over how nice it looks. You can’t tell this table wasn’t always like this straight from the manufacturer, which is exactly what I was going for. I’m definitely going to repurchase this paint and refinish my coffee table in the spring.

This was a great choice for my project!!! I am new to chalk paint and I’ve used another brand recently and it worked well, however didn’t have the color option I needed for this project. I came across this brand during my search and Sooo glad I did! I little goes a long way and it definitely does not require primer. However, I was going from a very dark to a light color and wanted the paint to really Stick! I sanded a little of the top of my nightstand (you don’t have to) but I did because my nightstand had residue of body oils and perfumes etc…very light minimal sanding and I wiped the whole thing down thoroughly with a little soapy dawn dish sip water to get rid of dust and Debris . Then I wiped it down again with just water…let it dry.I primed it with 1 coat nothing serious and began to paint with the Ivory tower!! Very beautiful color by the way, I let it dry and it was easy to use.Side note* I used a brush for all corners, feet, edges and a small roller for the top and sides. Then I remembered I saw a few YouTube videos that said a little water stretches it and makes it even more to spread. I poured a little chalk paint in a separate container with just a LITTLE water. Do this in a separate container not in the container it goes in, because whatever is left over for use at a later time can “spoil” mold etc..so in separate tray and the little bit of water I applied a second coat all over and sheesh this made it go on like butter! Talk about smoothhh sheesh I was impressed and wondered why I didn’t use water the first coating, but honestly I think it was better to use its full consistency for the first coating and only use the batch with a little water for the second coating. It dries fast, did not disappoint at all and looks great. I used polyurethane the varathane brand in satin for the top coat and it did not yellow. I read a few reviews and people said theirs yellowed. I did a test area (which I would recommend on your desired piece) to insure it doesn’t yellow. I’m highly satisfied and will be painting my other nightstand and big dresser next!!! Happy DIY :)

Decided to redo all my cherrywood furniture from The Bombay Company from 30 years ago to get a fresh look. Started with my two bight stands.The small 16 ounce covered both nightstands and my curtain rod and braces and finials.Waiting for more to do dresser and lingere chest. I paint with a heavy hand, it likely would have gone even further if I had painted lighter or even thinned with a bit of water but my first attempt and am happy with results.Used Retique it stain on top and 2 clear coats of polycrylic and spray painted the hardware. Huge change!

Excellent product! I have used it to paint cabinets and it looks fantastic! Easy to use and really nice coverage - I do recommend using a primer and giving the cabinets a good clean beforehand. Saved myself $$$$.

The paint itself is good but I ordered Gothic grey and they sent me Greystone. I already used half by the time I realized.
