Chalk paint and spraying

Debi53 on Aug 04, 2015Although I have not done it yet, I spoke with my sprayer manufacturer who said I could use it for chalk paint with a 1.5mm needle. Give your manufacturer a call just to be sure with your sprayer.Helpful Reply

Refreshrestyle D on Aug 05, 2015You can use a sprayer. You will need to thin according to the sprayer manufacturers recommendations. See my blog post here: http://refreshrestyle.com/spray-paint-dining-chairs/Helpful Reply

Heather Dahn Miller on Aug 05, 2015Yes! You most certainly can! I've done it with a set of chairs, you do however need to dilute the paint just a bit with water. It works great!Helpful Reply

Maine Country Home on Aug 05, 2015We've had excellent results with our old Wagner sprayer! We just add a little water, maybe 10% if that. It took me 5 minutes to spray one coat of Annie Sloan Old Ochre on a big desk, and I didn't need to do a second coat! It will look more modern than when you brush, by that I mean there will be no brush strokes. Just be mindful of drips. I'll carry a damp brush with me to smooth out any that crop up.Helpful Reply

Susan on Aug 05, 2015There is a YouTube video that shows how to do it. I didn't watch it all the way (don't have sprayer) but it says to just thin with water. Let us know how it goes. SusanHelpful Reply
