Thank you so much One. I really do enjoy what I get to do!

La Verne,

I rarely get any drips with the Finish Max. IF I do, it’s because I have thinned the paint too much. I typically keep a chip brush in my back pocket just in case. I did a lot of spraying yesterday, and didn’t have a single run.

If I catch it with a chip brush, it blends in really well. If it’s on the first coat you would never know it even happened after the second coat. If it’s on the final coat, and you catch it right away and lightly hit it with the chip brush, and give it another quick shot a few minutes later, all should be great! I’ve never “not” caught it and had it dry… if so, then you would have to sand it, and I think it might be more noticeable.

Diane,

Yes, I use the chalky paint for all finishes. The front faux drawer of this table is plastic wood grained stuff. It went on great. I recently painted some plastic mirrors with great results. You do have to seal it to keep it from scratching off. I mostly use poly products.
since you’re looking for a worn look, you could sand it back before sealing. Many people use a damp rag to “sand” this type of paint.

Question: With the sprayer….if you spray a little heavy and have a run/sag, do you catch it with a brush or foam or sand it later? Does the touch up show differently than the smooth spray?

I have blogged about it, but never have given exact measurements. I don’t measure when I cook, so therefor I’m bad about measuring when I DIY paint. Mix plaster of paris with some water, add that to the paint. Formula to follow in a future blog post. 🙂
