Z on Sep 29, 2014Chalkboard paint is not the same as ASCP. The Valspar paint is for turning anything into a chalkboard. ASCP is for painting furniture, not for writing on.Helpful Reply

Tania on Mar 24, 2015Donna@, I was lucky enough to have a friends mom buy a quart of Vintage Market, and never used it, so passed it on to me free. It was lovely!!! Buttery, full coverage, beautiful! I have also used FolkArt Home Décor, chalk paint from Joanne and it is beautiful, smooth and buttery with a very nice coverage. I bought Craft Smart brand chalk paint from Michaels and am very sorry I wasted the money. The Craft Smart gel stain in Silver grey was a nice way to age RAW wood, or distress white painted furniture. I would buy the gel stain again, but the chalk paint took almost the entire 8 oz bottle to paint a small shelf ( changing from light light grey to parchment)... where the FolkArt and Vintage Market and my home made (I use calcium bicarbonate) I would use 2 to 4 ounces for the same size shelf. Hope that helpsHelpful Reply
