KILZ® CHALK STYLE PAINT

Where to Use

KILZ® CHALK STYLE PAINT can be applied over most existing finishes with little surface preparation. Use to “up-cycle” vintage furniture. Apply to old or new wood, cast stone, concrete, or even metal surfaces†. Do not use on horizontal surfaces subject to foot traffic.

Surface Preparation

Preparation Makes Perfect!

• Before applying KILZ® CHALK STYLE PAINT, clean the surface to make sure it is free of loose or peeling paint, mold and mildew stains, rust and all other dirt and debris.

• We recommend lightly sanding glossy surfaces and repairing any imperfections.

• Remove all dust with a damp cloth and allow to dry.

Priming

• Use KILZ® CHALK STYLE PAINT on properly prepared uncoated or painted interior surfaces.

• For wood that contains tannins, such as Redwood and Cedar, a coat of primer such as KILZ PREMIUM Interior/Exterior water-based primer is recommended.

• †For optimal adhesion to difficult surfaces, use KILZ PREMIUM Primer.

• Follow the instructions on the back of the primer label and top coat it with KILZ CHALK STYLE PAINT.
