Rust-Oleum Black Abyss Chalked All-in-One Ultra Matte Paint | One Coat Coverage | No Primer, Sanding, Or Topcoat Needed | Easy Clean Up | Made in USA | 30 OZ

Love the finish product, went on easy just followed instructions and got the wax after.

I refinished an old 90's oak side table in my living room to give it a new look with this chalk paint. I chose chalk paint because it is notoriously easy to work with, covers well, and is durable. The serene blue color was just beautiful, and a slightly unusual color for a wood piece. Yet it matched my living room decor perfectly. The paint is thick, thicker than latex or other paints you might be more familiar with. However, it goes on well and covers completely in just a coat or two. Best of all, there's no need for sanding first! I admit, it did scuff sand a little bit first, just to assure good adhesion, but this wasn't necessary according to the package directions. Once cured, the paint is very durable with a completely matte finish that easy to sand off if you want a more distressed look to your piece. For extra durability, you might consider covering with a polycrylic or wax. I used less than half of my quart-sized can for this table. Since chalk paint is so easy to work with, I am thinking about what else I can cover with my leftover paint!

This is by far the best chalk paint; it doesn't clump. unless of course you leave it open for several days. Most projects you only have to use one coat & can paint on furniture without sanding thats the great thing about it.

I was surprised I didn't read about this in any of the reviews. I have been Chalkpainting for years, and usually use Annie Sloan or Renaissance Chalk paint. However, I was doing kitchen plank wood counters and was a little apprehensive about the durability of Annie Sloan or Renaissance for high traffic counters.I have used Rustoleum products in my home, for my front door and love their paints, so I decided to try this for next day shipping and reading it is a truly true white. If you chalk paint, you know finding a "true white" can be challenging to say the least. However, I read through the reviews and noticed the constant mentions of true white, and this is what I wanted. Not many people have "white wood kitchen counters", but I saw them in my head and knew this is what I needed.The boards were already sanded and made into counters, so I had my contractor lay them down on top of the cabinets and I opted to paint right in the kitchen. Like I said, I have been chalk painting for YEARS, and knew I wouldn't make a mess. When I started to lay the paint, I noticed it was not white and had a very noticeable hint of blue, like the paint was tinted. I thought perhaps I didn't wash my brush properly last time, and grabbed another brush, but same thing! I panicked when I saw this, and grabbed a flat paint I had in my basement. I ended up using the flat white paint on one counter, just because I was in fear of the blue. . . But this paint dried completely white, and it is such an AMAZING white! I was stunned at how true this white was! I will be going over the other counter tomorrow with this paint, because it does dry white. I wonder if I was the only one who noticed this. I can't imagine I was, but was STUNNED no one mentioned this.I have been in the process of a whole entire home remodel, and I am just in love with the counters! I think they look amazing! I will not be using wax, as I will do several coats of water-based poly with a light sanding in between coats. They really do look amazing! I didn't think this would hold a candle to Annie Sloan or Renaissance, but I am happy to report it does. I am just in love with this chalk paint!Island isn't done yet, and it will be plank wood but stained, to match the shelves, but the counters look amazing!

I almost went with the cheaper Re-tique brand, especially bc I was buying two cans. I had initially wanted to fully paint some light wood furniture we were given for a recent move, white. Bc I didn't want to fully cheap out and end up with nasty paint that wore down quickly, I went w this Rust-o-leum brand. Upon getting the furniture, It looks so good the color is is, that I may not paint it anymore. I still WANT to, but it looks so decent that I know it won't be worth the effort involved just to make it white, even if I still want to. So what to do now with two cans of chalk paint. I opened one can and went around the new place and touched up trim and molding and window ledges. It was perfect. So easy to use and dries so fast. I also ended purchasing two kitchen stool chairs from LetGo and they were a really bold cherry wood. The color did not go with anything in the apartment at all. Cue chalk paint. They were such a deep serious color that I needed to do two coats. One coat was "ok" but it was very obvious they were painted and strike marks were everywhere. I could have left them if that was the look was going for, but it really wasn't. So I had to bite the bullet and do another coat on both. They came out great. But I still have only used half of one can. I don't know what the hell I will use another can for. I may return it. Overall, this was a great chalk paint option and while I didn't use it for my initial intention, it still functioned perfectly for spur of the moment stuff in its place. I can't speak to its durability how long it lasts just yet, but I did put a layer of wood sealer on the chairs. I was going to do wax, but figured no one would want to be sitting on sticky wax. This was a great product!

We needed to paint a large piece of wood to use as a headboard.Painted the wood using this paint then realized we needed a different color. Both the original painting experience (paint on wood) and the next (paint over paint) went perfectly.I am NOT fond of painting, particularly because of fumes and cleanup. This paint had ZERO detectable fumes and cleanup was easy. Soap and water.The paint covers well and dries quickly to a pleasing matte finish.And Rust-Oleum is a heck of a lot less expensive than a lot of the other designer brands' chalk paints.Seriously, what more could you want?

This is amazing. I love the texture. Can is too small so had to buy 2 other than that it’s perfect. Sticks properly, low mess and no clumping so easy to use in a sprayer. This was a fun project to do and this paint made me it worth it.

Product came damaged with big dents, but paint is excellent. I planned to give as a gift but can’t do that now with the condition of the cans.

Perfect

This is ok but after applying and drying, it wiped off. It is important to know it is not waterproof and needs sealed after application.

Gives a good finish when used after painting with rust oleum white Matt color paint.

This is disappointing the paint was spilled all over the package
