Can I just chalk paint over this furniture?
I have personally painted over particle board with a prefab already on it . I did not use anything but the chalk paint. In this case I used Dixie bell paint in duck egg blue. The results where amazing! No prep other than cleaning well with hot water and dawn dish soap. Then a clean water rinse. Chalk paint is made specifically for paint n go ! If it is just bare particle board I would seriously use kills first! Good luck ad have fun !
Ps I’m not a Dixie bell seller just a independent woman who loves to paint! I use all kinds of chalk paints.
