No Pain Painting? What Do You Think of Chalk Painting?

I just finished a class on "Chalk Painting" I loved it and cannot wait to do it. There is no stripping or sanding involved. They have a website www.royalchalk.com. This is not at all what it sounds like. I was so impressed the the finished product. I tried to scratch off the work I did the next day and it did not come off. You can paint a lot of things with this like metal, kitchen cabinets, counters, doors, furniture, pillows, and much more. Just check out the site. I am not a merchant, just a person who took a class and believe me, when she said no prep work, she had my attention.

    Thank You. I was impressed by the finish and durability. It sure made painting easier and more enjoyable. It was hard not using the flat style paintbrush at first but the round brush really did a great job. And yes, it really is pain free and easy. No prep work - gotta love it. :)

    I plan on re-finishing my kitchen cabinets using chalk paint so I'm so pleased to hear it is painless. I am not all about stripping and sanding!!

    I love chalk painting as well. But, there are times when some prep work is required (I know they all say no, you don't, but I have painted many a piece with a glossy finish that did not hold even the most expensive chalk paint)
