So what actually is Milk Paint and how does it differ from other paints on the market?

• It produces a look and feel like no other paint, from a smooth and refined finish, to a rustic chippy distressed look.

• Only real Milk Paint comes in powder giving you this unique look. Watch out for the pre-mixed copy cats on the market that do not yield these same results such as the chippy look.

• It comes in powder – just mix it with water. Unused powder can be stored indefinitely.

• It’s your turn to get creative and achieve any look from a stain to a textured finish with one product, you’re in control simply by how much water you add.

• No brush strokes. Really, none! It mixes to a thin paint, so it self levels flawlessly.

• To bring our the true intensity of the color and protect the paint from water marking, add a top coat of your choice. We suggest Wax or Hemp Oil for most projects.  Stain & Finishing Oil is great for kitchen tables or cabinets for a more resistant finish.

• It will never chip or peel when applied to a porous surface such as bare wood or plaster.

• Get the unique chippy look only doable with Milk Paint. This will only happen when painting onto a surface with a previous glossy coating or wax. Want to make it chip? Learn how in this video here:

• Can we applied to laminate plastic, metal or glass by adding the Bonding Agent.
