how-to

Ensure the surface is free of dust, dirt and grease. Remove any loose peeling or flaking paint. Shake paint pot before use.
Something Painted™ Chalky Finish Furniture Paint adheres to almost any surface, and there is rarely any need to sand before painting.
Apply paint evenly and remove paint drips for a smooth look. The paint is touch dry in about 30 minutes and can be recoated after approx. 1 hour. It is recommended for maxi-mum results that 2 – 3 coats of paint is applied.
When completely dry, sand over with fine sandpaper for a smooth finish. Use a course sandpaper to distress your piece. Wipe over with a dry cloth.
Don’t forget that colours can be mixed i.e. Antique White can be used to lighten colours.
Rinse brushes in water and hang upside-down to dry to increase longevity.

Something Painted™ Finishing Polish is not required but does add protection and durability and gives the surface a high-sheen.
It’s really easy to get sensational results. Using a cloth or brush apply the polish sparingly. Re-move excess polish. Less is more, so there’s no need to apply the polish too thickly.The polish will dry immediately after you’ve applied it. Work small areas at a time so the polish doesn’t dry before you get to work it in.
To create an aged, rustic effect; apply Something Painted™ Dark Polish over the surface until the desired result has been achieved.
To finish, buff the surface with a dry cloth. Repeat buffing after 24 hours for a shiny look.
