Homemade chalk paint

Can this paint be used on vintage metal chairs and an old wooden swing(probably built in the 1940s by my husband's grandfather),they are all outside.After painting should they be waxed? They all have multipul coates of paint.

    I wouldn't use wax on an outdoor piece. I'd use a coat of poly or a latex clearcoat instead. Don't think this paint would work on metal, but maybe if you used a good primer first...
