Chalk Paint® is Annie Sloan Interiors’ brand of decorative paint, which draws on a lifetime of research and experience in working with paint and color. Chalk Paint® is not simply a paint with chalk added to it. It is not made by adding plaster of Paris or grout or even baking soda to an existing paint.

The finish is soft looking (somewhat Chalky). It is very forgiving and easy to use.
