Questions & Answers

How much area does the 8oz cover

Answer This Question

According to DecoArt's website, "An 8 ounce jar covers approximately 60 square feet on sealed surfaces." However, you might want to buy extra to be safe, especially if you're covering a dark color, or plan on painting on a coat of Kilz. Sometimes with old furniture that's a good idea anyway, as it will help block any finish that might bleed through the chalk paint.

I think I just write these reviews to show off my work ;-) but seriously, I do love the Americana Decor Chalk Paints. They go on very easily with a brush and dry quickly. When I got this color I decided to refresh an old MDF tray that I'd been using in my Kitchen. It was showing some wear and had a "beach" theme, which isn't really me, so I painted over it with 2 coats of Refreshing. I love this color because it is a close match for the aqua Kitchenaid and Cuisinart appliances in my kitchen. It's a bit greener than that aqua, but close enough. You could probably mix Refreshing an Serene to get a closer match, but it's close enough for me. I transferred a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson and used a paint pen over that to darken the transfer. Finally, I sealed everything with a coat of Americana Decor Creme Wax (Clear). Very happy with the end result and so will share photos!

Affordable alternative to Annie Sloane
I was very glad to find an affordable alternative to the Annie Sloane chalk paint. Although I haven't used Annie Sloane to be able to compare, I will say this paint wasn't as wonderful to use as the glowing reports of the Annie Sloane products. I did appreciate not having to do any prep and cleanup was easy. Fumes were minimal - but there were some. However I had to apply two coats even over a light wood finish. Also, the end produce left me underwhelmed - doesn't look as fantastic as all those pictures on the internet.

Beuatiful pastel green color.
Americana Decor "Refreshing" Chalky Finish is a beautiful pastel green color. I am useing as an accent to help refresh a a weathered cabinet , and it is a perfect complement to the Chalky Finsh Lace. It is easy to apply and washes off with soap and water.

First time using chalk paint. Love the color and ease of use (no sanding, no priming), but didn’t realize it would be so soft and need to be waxed after it dried. Still, love the finished product, and would be likely to use it again.
