Product Description
This genuine, environmentally-safe, non-toxic, zero voc's Milk Paint is available in twenty colors that dry to a beautiful velvet finish. The deep rich colors of Milk Paint authentically reflect those colors found on existing antique furniture and buildings. Milk Paint is made in small batches, using earth pigments. Modern paints cannot compare with the colors and the texture of the finish for achieving the old or country look of Colonial or Shaker furniture and interiors. And, like the paints used hundreds of years ago, the colors in Milk Paint will not fade. Milk Paint will produce an antique uneven matte surface when first applied. You can also create a semi-gloss look by simply burnishing the painted surface. Milk Paint is packaged in a dry powder form allowing you to control the thickness of the paint for use as either a wash/stain, full cover coat, or for stenciling. Milk Paint is environmentally safe and non-toxic when dry. It's safe for children's furniture and toys, and can also be used for interiors of homes of people who are allergic to modern paints. Packaged as a powder, you add water to make liquid.

Customer Reviews
First off, I’ve never used milk paint before and this review addresses both the quality of this particular milk paint and just a few heads up notes for other people who have never used it before. First, about this particular paint. It’s water soluble, easy to clean, goes on well and coverage seems to be about what is advertised. I used slightly more water 1.15:1 to paint measured by grams on a kitchen scale to get a replicable consistency each time. The color was true to the advertised, and matched the swatch. Zero VOC, which I loved for baby items. Overall worked very well, with good value as compared to other milk paint brands. I was very happy with the results.Now some things I learned for my first time using milk paint. First off, it’s not like other water-based pre-mixed paints. The paint is essentially a particle suspension in water so it’s not as “viscous” as say store bought interior paint and variations to your mixture ratio will largely affect how much surface area you can cover and how quickly it dries. It is not sprayable via an airless sprayer (like the graco cup gun) because of its clumpiness and will jam the sprayer (trust me I tried). Furthermore, milk paint is transparent after the first coat (think a tint of color only) which is nice if you are trying to still see wood grain below but really difficult if you are trying to cover a dark color with a light color. However, with each subsequent coat of paint it gets more opaque. Semi-opaque after 2-3 coats and then fully opaque after about 3-4 coats. (I had a walnut stain under a white, which took 4 coats to be totally opaque white). Lastly, it does need to still be coated with a finishing layer of a wax or oil (I used “real milk paint” brand wax). It will bubble and peel if water drops on it without a top coat, because it is water soluble. Lastly, it does have a nice velvet feel to it if you sand it before top coating it.(highly recommended)
