Rust-Oleum 302593 Series Chalked Ultra Matte Spray Paint, 12 Ounce (Pack of 1), Country Gray

Firstly, I’ve been experimenting quite a bit with chalk finish paint to refresh some outdoor furniture before hosting a baby shower. I have found Rustoleum’s Chalked line of spray paint to have the best quality, appearance, and overall texture compared to most other paints. The fact that it’s offered in a spray paint form also makes it less messy and fairly more hassle-free than most all of the other options available also.I used the Blush Pink shade to refinish this old little side table I use for plants. The table was originally finished in a dark red cherry wood tone but appears to be made from composite materials as it’s very lightweight and the wood finish could be sanded off easily.I cleaned the table off and then very lightly sanded the shiny sheen off of it where I could, without being too worried about getting it all off and without removing the cherry wood tones. I then sprayed it with three light coats of the paint. If there where any drips or accidentally thick spots of the paint, I hit them with a foam mini paint roller immediately after spraying to incorporate them better. Drying time was very quick- it only took 10-15 mins for each light coat to be dry to the touch, but I still gave each coat about an hour total outside in 77 degree sunshine to dry (probably unnecessary though). I’m ordering the chalked top matte coat to finish off the piece and will probably hit it it with a sealer too before putting it back outside.However, at this point, I’m very happy with the results! I wanted a subtle shade of pink but was mostly shooting for any kind of boho-looking light-colored chalk finish so I was flexible. This paint goes on very stark white-looking, but then seems to settle into a light pink shade after drying out fully.It has great coverage, though I did use one whole can on this one table. Still worth the $10 for the end result. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this product!

I love this paint! The regular liquid paint is great but this is bees knees! No, for real! Ok so I painted my end tables with the liquid version of the rustoleum chalked pain and the spray paint in “white”. Too white. Waaaaayyy too white. So I ordered the “Chiffon cream” and it’s perfect! It’s the perfect farmhouse white. Oh also, I did not sand or prep the tables at all other than using an all purpose cleaner and a rag to wipe them down before initially painting them. They were a medium tone wood with some sort of shiny sealer (I believe they were from the 1960’s, they were my grandmas).It’s a matte finish so keep in mind you’ll see wherever you spray too close bc those spots will be shinier. Also drip marks are a given. But that’s why this is so awesome, you just take your sanding block and rub it off when it’s dry. It took about a can per table (shown in pic). I recommend buying an extra can in case you need it. Our local hardware store (H—- D——) doesn’t carry this color so be prepared!2 coats might be enough but I did 3 to be sure I got the coverage I wanted.Chiffon cream on left and the white on the right in the picture.Every time I purchase something online, I always check the reviews.

Love this chalk spray paint. Great coverage

Very happy with the chalked spray paint! I have used most of the brands of chalk paint through the years for various projects and this is my new favorite! Super easy, super fast, even application.I used the Charcoal color to refurbish a cheap vintage yellow oak dining table set I got off of Craigslist for a temporary set in our asunroom. I did NO sanding or deep clean. Just a quick Dawn and water wipe down and rinse then dry.I applied the chalked paint on a fairly windy, mid-humidity day, outdoors. I did not experience any issue with paint odor or drips. SHAKE the can well and continue shaking lightly during use to avoid spatters and drips. To avoid paint pooling, use long, even strokes, starting and finishing each “stroke” slightly beyond the end of your surface. Don’t try to cover areas too quickly. Be patient and apply a second coat as needed. I found this paint applied best appx 4-5” from the surface. The charcoal color is a steely black...a couple shades from pure black, more of an old chalkboard color. The finish is very matte and smooth. I finished 5 pieces using 8 cans of spray, in a little over 2 hours, including drying time. Humidity will increase drying time and make the project slightly tacky or sticky, so low humidity, low wind, 60s/ 70s temperatures would be ideal. The paint was very forgiving when pesky bugs and little tree leaves blew onto the surface while painting. A quick wipe and a spray to re-cover. A clear protectant coat is recommended, especially for surfaces that will be used or be in contact with liquids. I used the clear coat from this line and was pleased. The paint has held up beautifully and I am currently working on more furniture pieces using various colors from this line. Recommend!

You'll only get one small project out of one can. But the finish is beautiful and soft to touch , dries fast. Color is just right. Coverage is very good . After it dries you may see places you missed. So good to have another can.

Dry time was reasonable and looks BEAUTIFUL

These were great for redoing an old dresser. Came out beautiful

Bad can of Chalk Paint. Contacted the company, explained what happened, they gave me a full refund on the product.
