In most cases, no preparation is needed - Chalk Paint™ adheres to almost any surface without sanding or priming.
- If you wish to clean your surface, use warm water only, avoid chemicals. Ensure all soap is fully removed and the surface is completely dry. Note: cleaning can sometimes activate old finishes.
- Perform a patch test before painting the full surface, Annie always recommends this step.
- Tip the tin upside down and shake well before opening, then stir thoroughly to ensure smooth, even colour.
When to prime first (rare)
- Heavily stained or dark oil-stained wood - apply clear shellac first to prevent yellow or red tones bleeding through. This includes red-stained wood and typical 1930s/40s furniture.
- Painting in a shade of white, stains may bleed through. Either use clear shellac as a sealer, or apply Chalk Paint™ in Athenian Black as a base coat to block stains.
When to sand first (rare)
- Highly polished surfaces, sand very lightly by hand to create a key for adhesion.
- Gloss paint - lightly hand-sand to create a key before applying Chalk Paint™.
- Laminate or melamine - sand very lightly by hand, then apply two thin coats of Chalk Paint™.
When sanding, always wear a dust mask and take appropriate health and safety precautions. Real teak and silicone cannot be painted with Chalk Paint™.
Always test the product on a small, inconspicuous area before full application to ensure compatibility and desired results.
- If the paint feels too thick, add a small amount of water and stir well until you reach the desired consistency.
- Apply with a good quality brush such as an Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™ Brush for the best results. A roller or cloth can also be used.
- One to two coats are usually sufficient. Allow each coat to dry fully before applying the next. One litre covers approximately 13 sq metres - roughly a small welsh dresser.
- For a wash effect, thin the paint with more water. For an impasto/textured finish, leave the lid off overnight to thicken the paint before applying.
- You can paint Chalk Paint™ directly over previously waxed Chalk Paint™ without stripping the prior finish.
- Always finish with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™ Wax or Lacquer to seal and protect your surface.
- Clear Wax - subtle sheen and protection. Dark/Black Wax - aged, antique effect. White Wax - limed, Nordic look.
Q. Do I need to sand or prime before using Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™?
A. Almost never. One of the biggest advantages of Chalk Paint™ is that it adheres to almost any surface without any preparation - no sanding, no priming, no stripping. Simply shake the tin, stir well, and paint. There are a small number of exceptions: highly polished surfaces, gloss paint, laminate, and certain stained woods may benefit from light sanding or a shellac primer, but for the vast majority of projects you can paint straight away.
Q. How many coats of Chalk Paint™ do I need, and how much will one tin cover?
A. One litre of Chalk Paint™ covers approximately 13 square metres - roughly the equivalent of a small welsh dresser or china hutch. For most projects, one to two coats is all you need, and in many cases a single coat gives full, beautiful coverage. Always finish with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™ Wax or Lacquer to seal and protect the surface once you're done.
