Just read about using chalk on a table top. Does that scratch easily?

we use the table a lot and whatever finish it has scratches from just about any item that you put on it.

    if you seal it properly it doesn't scratch easy.

      Thank you...the magic words "properly". I was reading a site that offered an article chalk paint for dummies...it didn't mention my name but I think he knew what it was. I have to go back and reread.

    I have never used chalk paint, but if you can use polyurethane as the finish coats, it is extremely durable. My dad restained some antiques and used polyurethane coats as the finish coats and were done in the early seventies and still look brand new.

    Interesting. I have to look at that as well. Appreciate your response.

    check out Famowood. It is a two part epoxy. Easy to use. Give a finish like a bar top.
