We’re so glad you asked! We’re certain that you’ll love our paint once you use it, but let me tell you why:

First of all, Country Chic Paint is eco-friendly and pretty much odorless! This is a huge plus when you consider your health, your family and the environment. Secondly, the paint is super easy to use – there is little to no prep work and it dries really quickly! Thirdly, we love how easy it is to create a distressed look without using sanding tools… all you need is a wet cloth. Want to know more about distressing? Click here for more info.

Not exactly – it’s even better! Our All-in-One Decor Paint is a clay-based formula that has even more amazing coverage and adhesion than traditional chalk-based paints you might be used to. It still has the same beautiful, matte finish that you love from a chalk-style paint, but it has a built-in primer and top coat so it requires less prep work and it’s more durable. BONUS: if you love rustic or shabby chic furniture, it distresses beautifully as well!

We would love to help! On this page you can see all our currently available paint colors. There are even some suggested layered color combinations towards the bottom of the page.  You are also welcome to take our Color Quiz where we suggest 3 of our beautiful colors for your next project!

We have found that the following neutral colors are always very popular: Vanilla Frosting, Liquorice, Simplicity and Cheesecake. These are our top sellers. If you want to use some color, we’d suggest trying Elegance, Bliss or Sage Advice as a great place to start!

To help you see what the actual paint colors look like, we offer hand painted color cards. You just pay a small shipping & handling fee and then you can see all our colors in your own space. Every room has different lighting and tones so the charts can be a real help when it comes to choosing that perfect color or color combination.

Yes, it is one of the safest furniture paints on the market today! It is eco-friendly and doesn’t contain, toxins, or other hazardous ingredients. So this is a big plus for your health and the environment. No paint should ever be ingested, and as such, we recommend that you keep it out of reach of children.

If you’re interested in learning more about the ingredients in our paint, check out our VOC and Toy Safety test results by clicking here. You can also view our Technical Data Sheets (TDSs) right here.

Our furniture wax contains beeswax and other natural waxes and oils. It does NOT contain any mineral solvents and it is not flammable.

Both paint and wax can be used indoors, however, we always recommend to crack open a window for a bit of fresh air.

All of our products contain zero to ultra-low VOC levels so they’re very environmentally friendly.

That’s a question that isn’t easy for us to answer as it depends on a lot of things. If you have just a small little project, such as a small stool or chair, you’ll likely get away with using just a 4 oz sample jar. For a dresser, you will want to get at least a pint size. Typically you will cover at least 120 square feet with a quart, 60 square feet with a pint, and 15 square feet with a sample jar.

Yes, absolutely! You can mix any of our colors to create colors that are uniquely your own. Click here for a color mixing tutorial including a video that shows you exactly how to do it!

We also have some recipes right here to help get your imagination running.

Your projects will have a very chalky looking finish, and although you don’t need to finish with wax, some people prefer to finish their pieces with wax to give it a professional, protective coating. Our Clear Wax and Hemp Oil are both made of 100% natural ingredients, so they’re very pleasant to work with. Our tinted waxes can give a beautiful effect to your project as well. There are antiquing, white, gold, pearl, grey, and black for you to play with!

For outdoor projects and for table tops or kitchen cabinets we recommend finishing with Clear Coat to make it ultra-durable!

To see examples of all the different finishing products in our line and what they can do for your project, click here.

And just a little note: when you use a tinted wax on a sitting surface, make sure it is completely cured before you use it. Allow about 4 weeks before you sit on a dark waxed surface, otherwise you might end up with stained clothing.

Our paint is water-based and doesn’t contain any solvents. Therefore, natural bristle brushes are not recommended to use because they absorb water, which causes the bristles to flare or become too soft to paint effectively.

Our line of brushes was selected specifically for use with our paint and wax – they are made from a special blend of synthetic bristles which will allow you to easily apply the paint to your piece without noticeable brush strokes. These brushes are high-quality and will last you a very long time.

Most of the time, there is very little you need to do in terms of prep work. You do want to make sure that your piece is clean, dust-free and is mold-free.

If the piece has been painted before, make sure there is no loose or scaling paint (unless you don’t mind that the new coat will chip away). It all depends on the look you’re going for! If the surface is glossy, then we recommend you sand it lightly with 120 grit sandpaper so the paint adheres better.

Certain types of wood may cause the stain to bleed through to the paint, leaving it looking yellow or pink. To avoid this, you’ll need to apply a stain-blocking primer (such as Shellac) before you paint. If you’ve started painting already, you can also apply it over the paint, let it dry and continue painting with a new coat.

Before you start painting, always make sure the surface is dry and the temperature is approximately between 10°C (50°F) and 30°C (86°F). If it’s too hot the paint will dry too quickly and if it’s too cold or too humid the paint will take a long time to dry.

Please visit our surface prep tutorial for detailed instructions!

One of the awesome things about our paint is that it is super easy to distress. You don’t even need sandpaper! Take a look at our distressing tutorial to see how it is done.

No. You are absolutely free to leave your piece untouched and not distress it! Just finish with wax after your final paint coat and you’ll have a stunning piece for your home!

Yes, our All-In-One Decor Paint is wonderful for painting kitchen cabinets! We have a tutorial available that shows you how to paint cabinets, so make sure to read and watch this tutorial before you start.

Our All-In-One Decor Paint is designed for outdoor furniture as well as indoor furniture, so yes, you can definitely use our paint outside! When you are putting your project in a covered area, then you don’t need to worry about using a top coat. However, if your piece is going to get rained on, we highly recommend finishing your project with Clear Coat so it will last a lot longer!

Wax isn’t recommended for outdoor use as the heat can melt the wax and you wouldn’t want a sticky piece of furniture, of course!

For table tops, as well as kitchen cabinets, we have developed Clear Coat, an extremely durable finish that provides excellent protection for table tops and kitchen cabinets. You’ll find it at our retailers or in our online shop.

Here are some tips for working with Clear Coat:

• First of all, Clear Coat should be applied only to painted pieces that have dried for at least 24 hours. It might be better to wait a bit longer if you have painted several coats, or if it is cold or humid.
• Clear Coat (as well as the paint) needs to be stirred thoroughly before use.
• Do NOT shake the can, as this will incorporate air in the product and bubbles in the finish.
• You want to make sure that the temperature you are working in doesn’t exceed 70F or 21C.
• Use a clean foam brush to apply Clear Coat.
• You also don’t want to keep going back and forth over the same area. It is best to apply in long strokes and not go over the same section when it’s started to dry (and it’ll dry quickly).
• Make sure to apply a coat that is neither too thin or too thick. Too thin will mean that it’ll look blotchy and too thick and you’ll get drips.
• Try to apply only little pressure: too much pressure and it might start getting a bit foamy and bubbly.
• If it dries too quickly, you can add up to 5% water.

The finishing product you choose will depend a bit on the look you’re trying to achieve, and also what the piece will be used for. Both antiquing wax and glaze are designed to give your piece age and depth, but they have different colors and very different application methods. Click here to see examples of antiquing wax and glaze or click here to see our tutorial about the differences in our finishing products where you’ll not only see the various results, but we’ll also demonstrate the different application methods.

If you’re refurbishing a piece that will get a lot of traffic or heavy usage, we recommend using a glaze so that you can seal your work with Clear Coat to give it the best protection possible. Clear Coat cannot be applied over wax as it’s a water-based product that won’t adhere properly over an oily product like wax. If you’re project will not be used as heavily and you’d just like a nice, professional-looking finish, then antiquing wax may be the way to go!

It’s so frustrating when that happens! Certain types of wood or nicotine residue, may cause the stain to bleed through to the paint, leaving it looking yellow or pink. To avoid this, you’ll need to apply a stain-blocking primer (such as Shellac) before you paint. If you’ve started painting already, you can also apply it over the paint, let it dry and continue painting with a new coat.

We recommend cleaning your painted furniture and home decor with a slightly dampened cloth. If you have used wax on your piece, you’ll probably want to re-apply some wax every 6-12 months. If you used Hemp Oil on your piece, you’ll want to re-apply every 12-24 months.
