The finally sanding must have removed too much paint. This is only my 2nd try painting upholstery. #1 Red kitchen chair & substitute for stool back #2 original stool 3rd nasty stool back
Original stool - Very dark blue.
This is my mess - dark blue showing - yes it has one coat of clear wax - want to add one more coat of gypsum color!
You could throw some old cotton rags on it and iron the wax off.
you can also use newspaper,,
All you have to do is lightly sand it so the surface will hold the paint again
Great responses to my chaulk paint-wax issue. Thanks to everyone!
Dry ice freezes wax, will crumble , vaccuum. Razorblade if on glass. Heat transfer to another cloth, but drives wax deeper into both.
Sanding would work the best plus it gives the chalk paint something to grab onto
Paper towel on wax, then iron. Move paper towel around as it soaks up melted wax. Works super good and it's cheep.
