    Q:What type of prep is needed for painting a melamine surface?
    by|Nov 16, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Hello, thank you for your question. We do not recommend our paints directly on melamine. To paint melamine, we recommend using the Bonding Primer No. 432 to promote adhesion. The surface should be sound, clean, and scuff sanded. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna

      Answer This Question

      A:  Hi Rosie, thanks for the question. You can use our Chalk Paint for painting wooden shelves. I'd recommend letting the paint dry for 7 days before putting items on the shelves to ensure the paint has fully cured. Have a great day! -Ronald

          DO NOY BUY!!
          I have been using Annie Sloan for years but tried this becaise of a late last minute project. It would not stick and beaded up. This is the worst paint I have ever worked with. Do noy buy, you will waste your time.

          Hi Jenn, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the issues you experienced. It is not normal for the paint to bead up and not adhere properly. As long as the surface was sound, clean, and dry, it should adhere and we would like to learn more details about your project to find the best way to help. Please reach out to us directly. Our Customer Care team is happy to help! -Giovanna Behr

            Not Black!
            Noir is “black” in French. This is GRAY - nowhere near black. Went on and dried nicely but it’s now going to be my basecoat. What a waste of $$

              Initially I had some reservations about purchasing this paint. I’ve use a much more expensive brand. Oh my gosh this paint is amazing. Just as easy to use. No prep whatsoever so ever. I painted the lower half of a 30 year old ball and claw oak table. Sanded areas the next day to give it the look I wanted. Perfect. Will absolutely buy again.

              Chalk Paint by Behr is the best!
              I love that I can paint just about any piece of furniture and make it new, at an amazing price point. Most of my furniture is found/free. I apply three coats, and then three coats of Helmsman Spar Urethane and the furniture is brand new again. Pictured is Jojoba. I honestly think the other negative reviews are white base and people didn’t get them tinted properly. You have to ask the paint people to mix the color you choose or maybe the paint dept. people didn’t mix it properly. Just my $.02

                Farmhouse white was not the color shown
                The farmhouse white was basically just plain white. It looked nothing like the picture shown so now I just have a plain white end table which doesn’t match my theme.

                Hi Customer, thank you for your review. I’m sorry to hear that the color didn’t turn out as expected. Typically, the lighting and the surroundings in the room influence how the color will turn out. It is a great idea to sample colors first.

                  Easy to work with. Painted 2 pieces of bedroom furniture and still have 1/2 can left. Used Valspar antiquing wax over it to make it a little darker and give it some depth.

                  I am a complete convert!
                  I have bought chalk paint from all of the big manufacturers, as well as made my own. But at this price point, and with the ability to do any color I want, this is the BEST. The quality seems to be fantastic and easy to work with. And I love how my first project turned out. I will be buying all the colors :-).

                    Love the color surf
                    This color is gorgeous. It’s a very happy color and intense too. In my first project pictured I did a bathroom tower. It totally made my bathroom a more happy place I love it. I did 2 coats. 3 coats would of made the color richer but I thought it would be too much for me , I suffer from depression. The tv stand came out beautiful. And it was black glass!! The paint stuck to it with no problem and dried fast!! I did 2 coats. Took me almost 1 quart to do both projects. The paint is perfection.

                      Almost Trash
                      I had an old vanity that I was originally going to throw in the trash. I decided to give this chalk paint a try and I am so glad I did! It came out beautifully! The paint was so easy to use, and clean up was a breeze!
