Rust-Oleum Charcoal Chalked All-in-One Ultra Matte Spray Paint | One Coat Coverage | No Primer, Sanding, Or Topcoat Needed | Easy Spray Application | Made in USA | 12 OZ

Firstly, I’ve been experimenting quite a bit with chalk finish paint to refresh some outdoor furniture before hosting a baby shower. I have found Rustoleum’s Chalked line of spray paint to have the best quality, appearance, and overall texture compared to most other paints. The fact that it’s offered in a spray paint form also makes it less messy and fairly more hassle-free than most all of the other options available also.I used the Blush Pink shade to refinish this old little side table I use for plants. The table was originally finished in a dark red cherry wood tone but appears to be made from composite materials as it’s very lightweight and the wood finish could be sanded off easily.I cleaned the table off and then very lightly sanded the shiny sheen off of it where I could, without being too worried about getting it all off and without removing the cherry wood tones. I then sprayed it with three light coats of the paint. If there where any drips or accidentally thick spots of the paint, I hit them with a foam mini paint roller immediately after spraying to incorporate them better. Drying time was very quick- it only took 10-15 mins for each light coat to be dry to the touch, but I still gave each coat about an hour total outside in 77 degree sunshine to dry (probably unnecessary though). I’m ordering the chalked top matte coat to finish off the piece and will probably hit it it with a sealer too before putting it back outside.However, at this point, I’m very happy with the results! I wanted a subtle shade of pink but was mostly shooting for any kind of boho-looking light-colored chalk finish so I was flexible. This paint goes on very stark white-looking, but then seems to settle into a light pink shade after drying out fully.It has great coverage, though I did use one whole can on this one table. Still worth the $10 for the end result. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this product!

I bought this in white to brighten up my dining room table set. I'm no stranger to chalk painting furniture, but this is the first time using Rustoleum. My typical brands have skyrocketed in price, but I have to say, as the cheapest option available at the time of purchase ($.60/oz), I am not disappointed! 2-3 coats was necessary for complete coverage on dark wood using a paint prush, as I anticipated despite "one coat coverage" advertisement (we all know that's never true on dramatic color changes). I lightly sanded the varnish prior to painting as a precaution, but I probably could have skipped that step. The paint adhered nicely and dried with minimal paint strokes. Virtually orderless as far as paint goes, and super easy to work with. The color is exactly what I expected: a lovely fresh clean white, easy to love! Unfortunately, it does not match my "vintage white" furniture in the room as well as I'd like, so I'll be picking up a different brand to do a final coat (though I'm sure house guests would never notice). Then I will apply some wax to protect it. All in all, yes, I fully recommend this paint if you can find it in the color you want! I've included the before and after of my table.

The perfect color for what I needed it for and the chalk finish is absolutely perfect. Make sure to shake thoroughly and remember that because it’s a chalky finish it dries very quickly. I love this brand and finish for rustic projects around the house.

Linen White is a very pretty color, however,it took 3 coats to cover a brown fireplace. Can says one coat coverage but definitely does not cover in one coat. It is a little more difficult to use than Behr, which I just used to paint my bedroom set. Same color brown and covered in 2 coats.I used chalk paint brushes and a Wooster brush for small areas.Not sure i will buy again

This color needs 2 coats to allow the green to show. Otherwise, it looks mostly gray. This color is really neutral, so it goes with a lot. The paint is easy to use and very durable, at least for my purposes. I don't even use a topcoat or wax, although it is recommended for high use surfaces. I'm adding a picture of miniature table and chairs finished in Rust-oleum Chalked Tate Green over the top of Charcoal (another Chalked color I love).

This Chalk Paint is Great. I have many colors. Works well. Looks Great. I have not used it to spray as I always us a chalk paint brush. I have used it on many types of wood and each time it turns out great.

This paint is great! With one coat, it completely transformed my old wooden cabinet, into a modern classic! Love the black matte, and feel.
