KILZ Chalk Style Paint, Interior, Ultra Flat, Blue Juniper, 1 Quart

This paint is great. I repainted my bathroom vanity and it looks great. Went on so smoothly I didn't have to add another coat. So easy to clean up with soap and water Now I'll need to buy a bigger size to paint my daughters dresser that is black. I will try and make it an Emoji theme. I'll post thr after. I highly recommend this.

the paint I received was the platinum ring, a light grey color. The can says little to no prep, but I always prep stuff, so I first sanded with 80 grit, followed by 320. so applying was typical of chalk paint thick and a little goes along way. I did notice it dried a little faster than other chalk paints I've used in the past. I applied one coat, then lightly sanded again with 320. I sanded again because the first coat usually leaves paint brush strokes. chalk paint is usually self leveling, and I found after the sanding the first coat, the coverage was smooth and soft. so I applied a second coat and it was excellent coverage and thickness, this paint is really great and easy to use. with all chalk painted things you will need to seal it with something, kilz suggest to use their waxes, and that is the popular method. but I found with other pieces, wax only lasts a few months and you will have to redo it. chalk paint is really absorbing and if you don't seal it and it gets dirty, that dirt is stuck there. you can add wood stain by lightly rubbing it on to give it an aged look, or paint over it with it. I did use wood stain over the chalk paint on my chair. I usually seal it with polycrylic matte finish. I do not have to reapply with this and it protects it. overall I see no difference with this chalk paint over more expensive ones, I would use again
