USING CHALK PAINT® OUTDOORS

Chalk Paint® is particularly good on brick, concrete, stone and terracotta – and there’s no need to seal if it’s a vertical surface. On horizontal surfaces and garden furniture, use Chalk Paint Gloss Lacquer.. It is a hard-wearing, water-based polyacrylic varnish with built-in UV protection and is water-resistant, making it ideal for outdoor use.

Chalk Paint® will fade in the sun, ageing gracefully with the elements, if not finished with Chalk Paint® Lacquer. It is a water-based decorative paint and does not have any weatherproof or protective properties. Depending on the look you want and the site-specific conditions you may find it needs a fresh coat periodically.

USING CHALK PAINT ON TILES

A fab economic makeover! Chalk Paint® will adhere to tiles and should be sealed with either Chalk Paint® Wax or Lacquer. On glazed or shiny tiles, allow for the full curing period (21 days for wax, 14 days for Lacquer) and take care not to scratch or chip the finish during this time. Bear in mind that this is not a finish that will hold up to being exposed to a lot of water/steam or frequent cleaning with chemical cleaners.
