Review on 1 Quart of General Finishes Lamp Black Water-Based Milk Paint by Pat Haberman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was a bit skeptical as I've been a fan of chalk paint in the past but this milky paint is great. It's very thick out of the can.

This was the first time I've used General Finishes Milk Paint, but not the first time I've used their products. I was a bit skeptical as I've been a fan of chalk paint in the past but this milky paint is great. It's very thick out of the can, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, as it dries evenly and covers better than other thinner paints. The Lamp Black color is BEAUTIFUL and completely matte black, just what I was hoping for. I applied it with a slanted Wooster brush I had on hand and it worked perfectly. I used General Finishes Flat Out Flat over Milk Paint and it was great. I tested it on a bench I built for my bedroom and will use it on all other bedroom furniture I design. I will buy again

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Big and bulky
