Pros of using Melange ONE Paint

One of the best features of Melange ONE Paint is that it doesn’t require any additional topcoat. It’s so easy to use!

This saves time and money as you don’t have to purchase or apply extra coats of topcoat – just a couple of coats of the paint (and primer if you want the best results) is enough.

The self-leveling formula creates a beautiful finish when brushed on so there are almost no brush marks left behind. If you use one of the brushes from our list of best paint brushes for painting furniture, you’ll have even greater success with painting furniture without brush marks.

You can also spray Melange ONE paint on with a paint sprayer. See the difference between spray painted vs brush painted furniture to find out which method is best for you.

Of course, you can also roll the paint on if you really don’t want brush marks, but you can’t spray it. Not sure what roller to use? Here is our list of the best rollers for painting furniture.

With 95 gorgeous colors available in Melange One Paint’s lineup, you’re sure to find something perfect for your project! Seriously, these colors are the best, there is a color for everyone!

The waterbased formula also makes Melange One Paint easy to clean and low VOCs which means it has very few fumes.

So you can use it indoors without those pesky fumes clogging up your clean air. If you want your paint to be extra extra durable then a topcoat can be added after painting as well making this product extremely versatile.

Whether used alone or with a topcoat finish, this paint is great for furniture makeovers.

Cons of using Melange ONE Paint

One downside of Melange One Paint is that it is mostly available online. While you can find out if there are local retailers in your area by clicking here on their retailer’s list, the availability could be limited depending on where you live or what colors you’re looking for.

Additionally, the sheen of the finished product seems to me to be more of an eggshell finish which is better than matte in my opinion. But if you would like it to be easier to keep clean, you may want to consider topcoating it with a satin sheen.

If you aren’t sure which topcoat to use, here is our list of the best polyurethane for furniture.

Depending on the surface being painted and the color desired, you might also need to use a stain blocking primer when painting wood or a bonding primer when painting slick surfaces such as laminate or plastic furniture.

Yes, Melange ONE does have a built in primer, but not all primers are created equal.

Some primers are used to give you better coverage, some are used to help the paint stick (bonding primer) and some are used to help block stains from coming through the paint (stain blocking primer).

BIN shellac primer is one stop solution for both applications! If you aren’t sure if it’s the right primer for you, or need more information to be convinced that you need a primer, check out our list of best primers for painting furniture.

• Mostly available online
• The sheen is more of an eggshell finish, so you might want to topcoat with a satin or higher sheen to be able to clean it easier
• Need to use a stain blocking primer when painting wood, or a bonding primer when painting slick surfaces such as laminate or plastic furniture
