I am afraid to buy it as it was painted with chaulk paint and I want to take off the paint and put it back to original. I know nothing about this paint or how to remove it. HELP!

    Hi there, any type of paint stripper will work to remove that paint. Once its off you can sand it down and restore it to its original look!

    Im not really familiar with chalk paint, but you should be able to strip it off with any stripping agent. Try Citra strip it has an orange scent and won't fell like its killing you.

    You can use citristip to get the paint off. Its a non-toxic paint stripper that works quite nicely
