KILZ Chalk Style Paint, Interior, Ultra Flat, Authentic Navy, 1 Quart

This paint saved a lot of money to find a new chair! Needed to keep these small size, comfortable chairs for basement remodeling, but the garish print needed to go. Put on one light coat of the chalk paint (wasn’t very well stirred up, but seemed to do fine) and instantly was transformed. The color was exactly as I had expected. I sprayed the chair with water first; the paint covered very well in one coat (as you can see in the photo, I purposely keep a little of the underlying print showing). Am planning to use a darker paste wax to buff in the finish, but it isn’t terribly stiff with just one coat. Have no idea what the durability will be, but if we can get a year out of these, I’ll be thrilled. Took less than an hour to do each chair and they dried well within 24 hours. Didn’t heatset with blow dryer or in sun. Will revise this review if something goes awry in the next six months, but this was a very satisfying craft project.

I loved the yellow tone of this paint. It was exactly what I wanted

This chalk paint is excellent! Will buy again...

This paint covers really well and doesn’t have a strong smell, which I loved. It’s perfect for fixing small details or touch-ups around the house. The small cans are very convenient and easy to use. Definitely great to have on hand!

First paint to arrive was the wrong color. Second paint was correct but the color is a little more cotton candy pink than coral in my opinion. Paint was well packaged and in good shape- didn’t need to be shaken. Painted a cabinet and wood chair. Still have plenty of paint leftover for another project. Overall happy, but with the color was a little warmer.

I have Never painted wood furniture before. After watching some YouTube videos, me and my 9 year old worked together in converting an old bed frame from oak wood color to white color in order to match the rest of her room’s furniture. We did slightly sand and prime the surface, but the instruction of the paint said it is not necessary. We still did it because it was a very old bed and had a lot of dents and holes. This paint is super easy to apply. We did two coats and the paint pretty much covered the dents on the old wood surface. We did apply the KILZ sealing wax afterwards which adds this sheen look that really makes the bed look new. We are very happy with this Kilz product line. With less that $40 worth of material (prime+paint+wax), we got a new bed! I would highly recommend this paint to DIYers.

I shook the can as the directions tell you. I wondered why the paint was thin. I was surprised when I got 1/3 of the way into the can, the bottom 1/2 of the can was pretty firm, I started stirring with a stir stick and saw it was white on the bottom. Had to do a lot of stirring to get it mixed thoroughly. That made it a lot better. It was nice thick paint. Went on smoothly and dries quickly. It is water soluable. Everything cleaned up with water. I am happy with the color. Ot went on a bookcase.

I had never used chalk paint before, so I watched videos and gave it the ol college try. It was WONDERFUL! I painted over varnished furniture and it went on amazingly. It covered perfectly and looks professional. It feels so soft. I thinned black paint with water and rubbed over sparingly. I can't believe the result. I then used Rust-Oleum matte clear chalked protective cover to seal (also from Amazon). You will not be disappointed with this paint. Tip: Turn the can upside down for 10 to 15 minutes, then shake well before opening, then stir well. Happy painting!
