How do I use CosyColours chalk paint?

Before each coat of chalk paint is applied, your workpiece - whether it is furniture or stone window sills, home accessories such as vases or other items - must be thoroughly cleaned and free of dust and grime. MissPompadour has the perfect product for this: MissPompadour To Clean. Furniture pieces previously treated with a wax coat first need to be sanded down.

If your workpiece has noticeable stains on the surface, as is often the case with pine wood, you should apply a coat of our To Bond & Block primer before you apply the chalk paint. Smooth surfaces like plastic, glass or stone should also be primed first with MissPompadour To Bond & Block to ensure optimal adhesion and durability. Coated metal surfaces should also be primed first. If the metal has rusted, sand off the rust and then apply a rust protection primer before applying To Bond & Block. Please note that old oak furniture can bleed even after decades. This can stain your coat of chalk paint. Old wood stains and varnishes can also react during application, leaving stains on the surface. Simply apply a coat of MissPompadour To Bond & Block Primer before applying the chalk paint to prevent any reaction with the substrate or old coating

You can achieve a soft, rustic-looking finish on all surfaces such as wood, metal, plastic veneer or stone. CosyColours chalk paints are stable and durable, but if your workpiece is used frequently - such as a chair or table - we recommend finishing with a coat of MissPompadour To Seal. This topcoat makes the finish even more impact- and scratch-resistant. If you are more interested in a perfect vintage look, you can give your paint coat an authentic finish with our furniture wax.

To apply the chalk paints, you need the right tools. You can't do it without a good brush. With the Fine MissPompadour Brush from a German brush manufacturer, you can achieve smooth surfaces without brush streaks. The bevelled edge of the bristles allows you to apply paint in tight corners. The brushes can be directly cleaned after use, with our special brush soap manufactured from a small soap boiling plant.

For larger areas, you can also use varnish rollers to apply the chalk paint. MissPompadour has also declared war on plastic and offers a fully compostable tray that can be re-used several times. The paint tray! is sectioned so that it can hold a few different colours in one go. This also means you can store your brushes in a special brush compartment while you work.
