Rust-Oleum 331053 Milk Paint Finish Kensington Gray - 946 Ml, Kensington Gray, Grey

Refurbshing the wooden parts of my old sofa set.

It's dark grey colour. We applied to our main door (Raw wood). It was like a faded black in the first coat. It looked light grey after 2nd coat. Eventually, it changed complete dark grey colour after 3 coats painted. Awesome look. However, needed to apply minimum 3 coats to get the desired look. So we have rated 4*

The paint is no doubt great but it seal of the paintbox was not tight so half the paint had leaked in the delivery box. I immediately used the paint that had leaked to avoid wastage.

Seriously why so much money? Improve import channels or lower your profits.

The media could not be loaded. Received an empty tin . For an expensive product we expect atleast the packaging to be done well and materials checked before sending. Would like an explanation on this or refund as we paid quite high for a litre of paint.

This is how i got the product. Full waste.

The paint gave exact Color and finish to my furniture I desired. It also gave excellent coverage. Have a lot of paint left in the can after I finished.

Great paint. Wish i bought more

Writing this review on my husband's account.I recently refinished our old piano and an old mirror we have. I originally wanted to use a chalk paint since it's very forgiving and easy to use, but have this milk paint a try because I could not find a navy blue chalk paint that was this rich in color. I'm so glad I went with my gut and picked up this milk paint. It's very easy to use and was already the thin consistency that I make my chalk paint before use (I add a cookie couple sprays of water to my chalk paint before use to get a smoother consistency.) Because it's thinner, I did need to use at least three coats of milk paint to get the same opacity as I would have with two coats of chalk paint, but this was not an issue for me. If anything, it was more forgiving because if I had any paint that pooled up and left paint globs, it was so easy to sand it off before the next coat. I experienced this with the piano because of all the tiny crevasses, but it really wasn't hard to fix.Overall, I'm extremely pleased with the results of both the piano and mirror. For reference, I used five coats of paint on the piano (could've stopped at three, but the piano gets heavy use) and three coats on the mirror. I still have about a fifth of the can left, so I have enough to paint a small piece of furniture.Some tips: 1.) Don't be alarmed when you open the can and the paint looks bright blue; it dries to this deep, gorgeous navy color. 2.) If your piece is shiny, sand it with a medium grit sand paper to give the paint something to grip to. 3.) Use synthetic brushes; the coverage is just much better and easier to work with. 4.) You can use polycrylic as a top coat, but I used Jolie furniture wax as a top coat (also on Amazon); not only has it held up well, but it gave the piano and mirror and even richer color and great, smooth texture. Guests can't help but touch the piano because of how stunning it looks. 5.) If you paint a piano like I did, please don't paint the back/sound board, as this will compromise the sound. 6.) Have fun! This paint was very forgiving and easy to use!The can of paint was shipped securely; no issues with shipping like others have experienced.I posted multiple photos so you can see the paint in different lighting (lights vs natural.)

I used this paint to refurbish this side table. It paints on easily and pretty smoothly, I actually had the kids help me! It took two rounds to make it solid like the side table but if you are looking to do shabby chic one might be enough. I was worried that because it is so matte it would come off with any spill but (this is TMI) my puppy climbed up on the sidet able and peed on it we had to clean it with puppy stain and odor remover and the color stayed the same, no fading or scratching off. I've also had other skills that came right off with a baby wipe. If you want some sheen I'm sure it can be painted over with varnish. I also love the color! This is such a great paint for quick refurbishing projects, it also dries quickly. We left it overnight just to make sure but it seemed to have dried within an hour or two, at least enough so that I didn't need to worry about anyone brushing against it.

This paint is a little shinier then I would have preferred. How I’m in a rental place and it did a nice job of covering up my scuff marks. Went on beautifully. I am certain that this size can will complete my apartments baseboards.

Before buying, I tried to look for reviews of the navy color and didn't find much to guide me, so I hope my comments will help those who are looking for this color. I always use the chalk finish because I like the matte look more than the glossy color. I had previously painted a piece of furniture in blue, and although I liked the tone, this time I was looking for something darker. I was hesitant about switching from the chalk finish to the milk finish. In the end, I decided to buy this shade even though it seemed a bit lighter than what I was looking for. My final comment is not to be alarmed by the color of the paint when it's fresh because it dries much darker. The milk finish gives it a very interesting pearly finish, although it remains matte as I wanted. The good thing about this paint is that it doesn't need another protective coat on top. The final result turned out very nice, and I am very satisfied. I'm including photos of the differences in tones between the fresh and dried paint so you can see the final look. And it is much cheaper that the clam paint!
