Shabby Chic Chalk Furniture Paint: Luxurious Chalk Finish Craft Paint for Home Decor, DIY, Wood Cabinets - All-in-One Paints with Rustic Matte Finish [Black Liquorice] - (8.5 oz Covers 32 sf)

I am hooked on this paint now. I was a bit surprised because the can is small. After using it I realized you do not need a huge can. This is a high quality product. I was amazed at the coverage. It dries with full coverage. It is a very matte finish which is beautiful. The texture is great. It is not high gloss which is what I was looking for. I am obsessed with this. I got it to paint a metal table and it looks so nice I keep using it. I’ve used it on metal stool legs and drawer pulls. This is now my go to product. I used antique gold and the color is perfect it is not brassy and looks classy

This paint is fantastic! I’ve ordered from Amazon for years and this is my first review. The can seems little but it goes a long way! The gold color is perfect! I painted it on two metal poles in my basement and it took two coats but I had plenty of paint. Great product!

I used it on some older cabinets and put it on without any prep. The picture doesn't do it any justice, it shines and lights up my small kitchen. I was hesitant because the color was not the same as shown, so if you are looking for a turquoise don't buy. It's more like a electric blue, but definitely recommend for quality and finish.

I bought this paint in the hopes I wouldn’t need to do a bunch of coats for it to show up and unfortunately that wasn’t the case. However, after about 3-4 coats it looks beautiful! So you just have to be patient. Otherwise it’s easy to use and goes on any surface well.

I recently scored a lovely marble top table for a steal with plans to paint it. I didn’t think about whether painting marble was easy or not, but it was as so cheap I needed it. Did some searching and found this paint. I am AMAZED. I almost got the rust oleum chalked paint but it didn’t look dark enough. This gave me a beautiful dark satiny matte black over the wood AND the marble with no priming. Pics are before and after. When I painted the first stroke I was skeptical because it looked like it was rejecting the gloss finish on the table, but I gave it about a half a minute and tried to spread it and it was fine. Streaky but it was just the first coat. Did 3 coats on the bottom and one on top in this photo. I’ve since added another coat to the top and plan on sealing it so it’s shiny like the marble was. Im so happy I got this paint and can’t wait to start on the China cabinet I also got. In terms of cleaning it came off my hands fine but wiping it off the floor with soap and water didn’t work. Hopefully a cleaning agent will do the trick. That’s my only con. EDIT: Original review is from March 2023. It's now Aug 2023 and I've been able to paint the table shown, a whole 6.5ft tall china cabinet, 8 floating shelves, ornate appliqués for the shelves, 2 gothic wooden window frames, a 4.5ft ornate bookshelf, and 3 pieces of wall decor. THERE IS STILL PAINT LEFT from this small can. This stuff goes a lonnng way.

Purchased twice. If you do not add a layer of primer you will need to do more than one, possibly 2-3 coats of paint. However, the color payoff is well worth it in the end. Getting ready to start my third project with a 3rd purchase of the champagne color.

I am in love with chalk paint due to the aged look it produces and I purchased white and black chalk paint from other brand to paint 2 dressers, further mixing it to achieve the degrade grey: that paint was thick like marmelade, achieved great coverage in one coat (for black; white needed 3 layers) besides getting 1 litre for under 20 USD. This Shabby chic paint by contrast is simply terrible. I purchased white, black, silver and gold, each for just under 20 USD for 250ml - terrible value for money. Not only that: - the paint is like water (shake the can to hear how water thin it is if you are going to buy it) - the paint is at the bottom of the tin and even when shaking the tin many times, the paint was still very thin - this paint smells stronger than other brands of chalk paint I used. - I tried to use the silver paint to paint the lines on this dresser and I had to apply it so many times due to being so waterish; on black it looks a bit better but on the white side of the dresser if just terrible. The silver paint leaves some streaks and lines and when removing the tape to achieve the straight lines, some of the paint was taken with the tape. This never happened with other chalk paint brands. Reading the huge percentage of positive reviews, I conclude the Shabby Chic factory standards dropped. Thankfully the Amazon customer service was amazing due to our Prime membership.

This item was delivered slightly open. Luckily it was in a plastic bag but there was paint everywhere. I still used the paint and found I needed to apply at least six coats to fully cover my item. I would strongly suggest a primer if you are using this metallic paint. Hopefully yours will arrive sealed.
