I used Annie Sloan white chalk paint and wax. Why does it look yellow?
It looks like either the wax turned it yellow, or maybe something bled through. How do I fix it? Thanks for your help!
Hi Kate! First and foremost, make sure the surface is clean. Also, it's good to keep in mind that you should make sure that you're using a clear paste if you don't want the color of the furniture to be altered.You're going to need a soft wax application cloth. Be sure that you don't let the wax dry for too long - 15-20 mins should be adequate before you start buffing. Good luck! Would love to see what you've created, too!
