How difficult is it to strip chalk painted and waxed furniture?
+4
I haven't used chalk paint yet, and before I do,,I'd like to know the process for stripping the wax and paint to bare wood (or original finish). Also, what kind of texture does chalk paint have when dry? Why does it need to be waxed or sealed if regular paint doesn't?
Would you choose chalk paint over conventional or mineral paint if you're not going to distress?
TIA

Chalk paint has a nice matte finish look and is great because if you don't like it, you can just paint over it!
use your hair dryer to soften any paint residue and sand down the rest eric
Thank you, Eric and Shoshana! I still need to know difficulty/steps in removing.
Thank you, Shoshana! That answers my question about texture, but I still need to know about stripping the wax, and if you would use chalk paint if you didn't plan to distress?
I hope things went well, always ready to help
