Waverly Inspirations Chalk Paint, Ultra Matte, Maize, 8 fl oz

I had never used chalk paint before, so I tried three different brands to see which brand performed the best. I bought similar shades of pink in all three brands for a more accurate comparison. This Waverly brand was BY FAR the BEST chalk paint of the three brands I tried - which were: Dixie Bell, Waverly, and FolkArt Chalk Paint. This Waverly chalk paint covered in one coat of paint and provided perfect, even coverage. I used this pink paint over a black surface, and it covered the black with NO problems. The Dixie Bell chalk paint required three coats in order to cover both a black and a white surface - THREE coats to get the same coverage as the Waverly in ONE coat. The FolkArt Chalk Paint performed the WORST. It barely covered the white or black surfaces - I gave up on the FolkArt Chalk Paint after applying five coats and still not 100% coverage. I HIGHLY recommend the Waverly Chalk Paint! It is so easy to apply, provides even, full coverage, and clean-up is a breeze. I definitely plan on buying more colors of the Waverly Chalk Paint - I just wish Walmart carried more of these colors in stock.

I used the chalk paint as a base layer before using craft acrylic paint on top. I was using it on a smooth, manufactured wood product and it seems to have provided that grippy-base layer that I was looking for. The chalk paint had little noticeable smell. I was pleased.

i really liked working with this paint. One coat does work,dry well. Great investment into an old dresser, looks great now, saved from going into trash.....

This antique wax is a terrific alternative when distressing your project that is very cost-effective compared to some of the alternatives and very easy to work with. If you mess up you can just spray a little water on it and blend it in more to your liking. I definitely recommend it.

I saw a YouTube video showing how a crafter used the Waverley chalk paint wax to 'age' what they were making, so I bought it. It was very easy to use and my project turned out great!! I wish it came in other colors but for now, I'll keep using it on anything I need to. I recommend this product.

This paint is very easy to apply and dries quickly. Love the way it looks after it is dry. I would not recommend little kids using this paint to play with because it is permanent . Depending on your project , you could get by with applying 1coat and it covers well, a second coat is thick and would be good if you are sanding part of it off for another color to show through. It doesnt take much of this paint to cover your project.

I just love all of Waverly's chalk paints. The colors are wonderful, albeit sometimes hard to figure out thanks to the vague names and obvious issues with ordering paint online. It's easy to use, and you can thin them with water if needed. All in all, great product.

My mother and I love to craft. We always use Waverly chalk paint. The Waverly Inspirations Chalk Paint, Ultra Matte, Ocean is the most beautiful blue I have found in paint. We use the Waverly chalk paint to do the first coat on almost everything we paint. It covers exceptionally well and can be left as is or painted over with acrylic paint. The flow of the paint is perfect. Not thick but not thin. The pigment load leads to a vibrant color. I would not want to craft without Waverly!

this is a very nice product, great for antiquing, I really like that it is water based. Color gives that perfect antique look, only needs 1 coat for coverage.

I loved the moss color! Until I got the main pieces of this Ethan Allen hutch done and started the doors. (I got 1 door done with the same jars I used for the hutch bases) Be very careful purchasing multiple containers. 1 of ours was off by 2 shades and I had to order more and redo the entire hutch. The doors would have been an entirely different color than the hutch itself. Photos of the difference are included, yes all 4 containers were moss, 1 was lighter than the other 3. All in all I love how well the coverage is of this paint, minimal prep, a little goes a very long way!
