How to make wax so smooth over chalk paint
How do I get my cabinet so smooth after chalk painting it?
You just clean your surface and paint. No sanding or primer needed!
Easy peasy. Make sure you have a good brush and don't overload it. Better to do a couple of coats than a thick one.
if you are painting on glass, after you clean the glass with soap and water, rinse well, dry, and then rub down with rubbing alcohol. This will help the paint stick.
Remember to use wax when you are finished, just a thin coat of wax will give your chalk paint dimension and help protect the finished product.
Yup, it's that easy. Generally, no prep. Have fun!!
