Does black chalk paint cover wood stains and imperfections well?
Yes, it’s great at covering wood stains and imperfections in your wood furniture. Typically, you need only 1-2 coats of black paint over wood furniture to get full coverage over wood, and since it is so dark, you typically can’t see many bleed through stains coming through the paint! Here’s how to stop stains from coming through paint especially if you’re working with light paint colors.
It also is great at hiding cracks and seams in your wood furniture because those are dark, and black paint is dark. It’s very forgiving honestly!
How to care for Black Chalk Painted Furniture
Caring for your black chalk painted furniture is surprisingly easy and fuss-free! Always use a soft cloth or sponge for routine dusting and cleaning. Avoid overly harsh or abrasive detergents as these can potentially damage the finish on the chalk paint.
For any accidental spills or stains, a mild soap solution often does the trick. Also, keep your furniture away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to prevent discoloration or warping over time.
Remember, paint is not indestructible. No matter what kind of paint you use, you need to take care of it to keep it looking nice.
