If you are looking for a durable, smooth chalk feel, vibrant and long lasting paint, here it is. One Step Plaster Paint eliminates the need to seal your project. Only minor sanding or the use of New Surface is recommended before paint application.
If you are planning to apply One Step to a high traffic areas such as cupboards or tables, ensure you apply liquid wax sealant to provide an extra durable surface.
New Surface is one of the coolest products Plaster Paint Canada has! Its job is to help your paint adhere to whatever surface you choose. New Surface can be applied to any piece of furniture, glass, metal, wood, tile, slick surfaces, gloss finishes, varathane finishes, high gloss paints…the list goes on. All that is needed is one light coat before you paint and you are ready to start. And yes, this also means you DO NOT need to sand first.
The tried-and-true original Plaster Paint…with a little something extra! Add a little bling and a lot of glam to your project using the Metallic Plaster Paints! Metallic Plaster Paint provides the same durability required to makeover anything with the added bonus of a metallic finish.
You can use the Metallic paints as a top coat, add to any colour paint (The Original Plaster Paint and Metallic Plaster Paint only) for a beautiful custom colour, dry brush over a base coat for a subtle touch, or create a shimmering wash or glaze.
Ok, you have picked your paint. If you are using One Step, then high-five, you are done. If you need a sealant, here is how to pick one based on the finish you want.
Matte finish – Liquid Wax, Paste Wax or Magic Seal
The perfect look depends on the perfect brush! In general, natural bristles will hold the paint nicely and leave no brush strokes for a clean look. Try any of our restore round brushes. They’re sure to become your favourites. For a multi-tasker quick-use brush, try a chip brush. For our one-step paint use the smooth restore synthetic brush. Trust us, you’ll love it!
Enhance the current colour and make details pop with our Glaze or Glitter Glaze finishes! We recommend applying with our Restore synthetic brush. Brush on and immediately wipe off with a damp neutral cloth. Seal with liquid wax of your choice.
Plaster Paint Powder Have some old paint kicking around? Plaster Paint Powder can turn any water-based latex matte-finish paint into rich, creamy plaster paint. 32oz of Plaster Paint Powder makes up to four quarts or one gallon of any color Plaster Paint. For smaller projects, mix one scoop to one cup of any color of matte-finish latex paint.
The Original Plaster Paint Crackle, which is a water based additive that when applied in between paint colour layers, will dry the paint with cracks to show the colour or texture beneath the layer of paint. Great for that “old world” antique look or for a more modern colourful spin on your piece.
