How to make wax so smooth over chalk paint

How do I get my cabinet so smooth after chalk painting it?
Answered above.
I used plaster of paris to make mine. It worked great!
Hi Sue. My name is Cindy. Here's an easy recipe for chalk paint: Mix one-third cup of Plaster of Paris and a third-cup of cool water. Stir until completely smooth. Mix that with one cup of latex paint, and stir thoroughly. This will make enough chalk paint for one coat on a 6-drawer dresser. Chalk paint should not be stored or reused. Good luck Sue.
