Rust-Oleum Chalked All-in-One Ultra Matte Linen White Spray Paint | Furniture Paint, One Coat Coverage, No Primer Required, Easy To Use, Fast Drying, Low Odor, Multi Surface, Indoor Use, 12 oz

The best paint for refinishing furniture I’ve ever used! I’m refinishing Ethan Allen living room tables & a bedroom set for a move to a retirement beach house. We looked at new furniture, but it wasn’t the quality we’ve grown used to over the last 47 years of marriage. Then, I decided to be daring & try Rust-Oleum Chalked All-in-One Ultra Matte in Coastal Blue. Wow! Removed the hardware, did a simple sanding, wiped it down with a clean cloth, used painter’s tape to ensure clean line & alternated between a good quality brush & roller. Every piece looks beautiful & it has a new life. An extra benefit is that we estimate that less than $50 of their white paint & the Coastal Blue saved us from spending over $4,000 on fake wood pieces of mediocre quality. Rust-Oleum does it again!

I used this to rehab a printer stand I found at a yard sale several years ago. The color is a perfect light aqua. I finished it with a couple of coats of satin polycrylic, and it is just beautiful!

Love the finish product, went on easy just followed instructions and got the wax after.

Worked great. Exactly what I wanted.

PRODUCT: 4 Stars SHIPPING: 0.0001 Stars and ONLY Because Shipping Thought to Box the Can So, I love this paint. It's not as good a product as Dixie Belle or, obviously, Annie Sloan, but the price is much better. I find that the tannins in wood tend to bleed through if you don't prime woods like pine (in particular) with the lighter colors (this blue, white, linen, etc.). But I don't mind the extra priming step. The paint is easy to distress, but I'm not sure about durability for that very reason. I've had some edge wear on earlier projects, but I'm trying a new topcoat to prevent that. The paint takes waxing or poly coating well. If you don't use a good (and I mean GOOD) brush, you're going to have drag lines in the finish. It just is what it is. This paint won't do any type of concealing for a mediocre paint job. But hit it with a super fine grit sand paper and dust it well before you finish coat it, and it looks great. Now, shipping. HOLY COW PILES, AMAZON! What were you THINKING? The box arrived in perfect condition but I was worried the minute I picked it up from the mailbox. The can was rolling around in the box. I crossed my fingers, opened the box and found a can that looked like it had been through riots and rampages then shipped through the apocalyptical postal service. One of the four metal tabs on the can had been knocked loose, paint was leaking out of the compromised seal, the can sides had SERIOUS body damage and the bottom of the can has an outward V-shaped crease like it was struck from inside with a wide chisel or King Kong tried to use this thing for a coffee cup and squeezed too hard. I'm disappointed Amazon would ship a product in this condition. No way was it THAT damaged in shipping if the box was fine. The box freaking would NOT have survived this type of abuse. So the product came from Amazon this way. THIS is what my Prime membership pays for? Really? For that, I'll just go to my local paint store and buy local. It's faster, doesn't cost me $99 a year and I know they aren't going to sell me a can I have to then find a replacement for. Seriously. The seal was so compromised, the paint leaking out, that I had to buy an empty paint can to store the paint in. Had I not, the paint would've dried out worse than the skim layer I took off the top after opening. BOTTOM LINE: This is a good product, much cheaper than alternatives but you do get what you pay for here. Think twice about ordering it from Amazon unless you have a spare paint can and a lot less give a flip than I do. (Side note: Rustoleum carries a spray-can matte finish for use with chalk paint. EXCELLENT product if you need a quick-seal finish!)

This is by far the best chalk paint; it doesn't clump. unless of course you leave it open for several days. Most projects you only have to use one coat & can paint on furniture without sanding thats the great thing about it.

I refinished an old 90's oak side table in my living room to give it a new look with this chalk paint. I chose chalk paint because it is notoriously easy to work with, covers well, and is durable. The serene blue color was just beautiful, and a slightly unusual color for a wood piece. Yet it matched my living room decor perfectly. The paint is thick, thicker than latex or other paints you might be more familiar with. However, it goes on well and covers completely in just a coat or two. Best of all, there's no need for sanding first! I admit, it did scuff sand a little bit first, just to assure good adhesion, but this wasn't necessary according to the package directions. Once cured, the paint is very durable with a completely matte finish that easy to sand off if you want a more distressed look to your piece. For extra durability, you might consider covering with a polycrylic or wax. I used less than half of my quart-sized can for this table. Since chalk paint is so easy to work with, I am thinking about what else I can cover with my leftover paint!

I was surprised I didn't read about this in any of the reviews. I have been Chalkpainting for years, and usually use Annie Sloan or Renaissance Chalk paint. However, I was doing kitchen plank wood counters and was a little apprehensive about the durability of Annie Sloan or Renaissance for high traffic counters. I have used Rustoleum products in my home, for my front door and love their paints, so I decided to try this for next day shipping and reading it is a truly true white. If you chalk paint, you know finding a "true white" can be challenging to say the least. However, I read through the reviews and noticed the constant mentions of true white, and this is what I wanted. Not many people have "white wood kitchen counters", but I saw them in my head and knew this is what I needed. The boards were already sanded and made into counters, so I had my contractor lay them down on top of the cabinets and I opted to paint right in the kitchen. Like I said, I have been chalk painting for YEARS, and knew I wouldn't make a mess. When I started to lay the paint, I noticed it was not white and had a very noticeable hint of blue, like the paint was tinted. I thought perhaps I didn't wash my brush properly last time, and grabbed another brush, but same thing! I panicked when I saw this, and grabbed a flat paint I had in my basement. I ended up using the flat white paint on one counter, just because I was in fear of the blue. . . But this paint dried completely white, and it is such an AMAZING white! I was stunned at how true this white was! I will be going over the other counter tomorrow with this paint, because it does dry white. I wonder if I was the only one who noticed this. I can't imagine I was, but was STUNNED no one mentioned this. I have been in the process of a whole entire home remodel, and I am just in love with the counters! I think they look amazing! I will not be using wax, as I will do several coats of water-based poly with a light sanding in between coats. They really do look amazing! I didn't think this would hold a candle to Annie Sloan or Renaissance, but I am happy to report it does. I am just in love with this chalk paint! Island isn't done yet, and it will be plank wood but stained, to match the shelves, but the counters look amazing!

Perfect

This is ok but after applying and drying, it wiped off. It is important to know it is not waterproof and needs sealed after application.

Love this paint the coverage is amazing and the colour is nice. I also used their matte clear to seal the paint. I also used a foam roller as well and everything came out perfectly. Looks amazing

Gives a good finish when used after painting with rust oleum white Matt color paint.

This is disappointing the paint was spilled all over the package
