General Recommendations and Cleanup

For the best results, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from contaminants such as wax or oil. Stir thoroughly before use, and apply evenly using a brush or short nap mohair roller. It’s essential to remove as much product as possible from equipment before washing with water. Dispose of waste paint responsibly—never pour it into drains or watercourses. Local authorities often provide special disposal services.

All Rust-Oleum furniture paints are not recommended for:

• Outdoor use (unless explicitly stated otherwise).

Always test on a small, inconspicuous area before full application to ensure compatibility. Refer to the downloadable data sheet for detailed application instructions and further restrictions.

Recommended Additional Products

To complete your furniture restoration, consider pairing these paints with Rust-Oleum Furniture Finishing Wax, especially after using the Chalky Finish Paint to protect and enhance the final result. Additionally, a suitable stain-blocking primer may be necessary for surfaces prone to bleed.
