    I don't understand your question - do you want to paint or remove the paint?

      No - don't paint it with any kind of paint - it will be somewhat permanent.

    I'm renting a house and would like to paint the ugly orange tile on the fireplace. It is a long term rental, but in the event that we do decide to buy our first home, I would like to be able to remove the paint easily when we move out. I'm just wondering if chalk paint can be easily removed.

    No, in my opinion, once you have painted with any paint, you will have more success painting or covering the paint later, than removing any type paint. 😇🍁

    Painted tile can be difficult to remove paint from, so I would not go that route. You would be using a primer to make the paint adhere to the tile, making removal difficult.
