Review on 🎨 Renaissance DIY Retique It Chalk Furniture Paint, 32 oz (Quart), 01 Snow - Enhanced for SEO by Brandon Show

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very satisfied, photos are required!

Loved this color! This was my first time using chalk paint and I loved it. It is much easier not to sand at first, but to prime your work. I painted some old tables Ivory Tower because Snow White seemed white for the antique look I was looking for. I will send photos for color reference. I ordered dark wax but after aging the table didn't feel the need to use it as the dark wood had gone well. What I learned: I would NOT rub an item before aging it again. I used a lot of clear wax. I painted 2 coats (that was a lot), covered with clear wax, aged the tables and then re-covered with clear wax because it was 'recommended' but it was a waste of wax and I had to order more. In my opinion wax protects the item better from serious damage, but it obviously created unwaxed areas where I had wood damage, prompting me to really go back and wax those specific areas and then re-wax the entire piece around them to produce. Going forward, I'll just crush lightly and then grow after I'm done to seal and protect the item. Again a beginner but I've read a lot of reviews and hope this helps!

Pros
  • INTERIOR/EXTERIOR WORKS - Ideal for indoor and outdoor applications. For exteriors, simply apply a navy blue top coat like Polytique It before applying clear wax.
Cons
  • Sun Sun
