How about the brush strokes and the bleed stain.Can you make another video? Please thanks!
@EliLeeDesigns Жыл бұрын
If you are looking for a smooth/no brush stroke finish you’ll definitely want to focus on the brush you get or consider a roller. The chip brushes I used to test them all was pretty coarse which left some level of brush stroke in each sample. As for the bleed, they all did surprisingly well but from my experience the tape you use does make a big difference. I hope this helps and I will definitely consider doing another one of these videos when I get back. 🤗👍🏽

It was really tough to get the best lighting to show the differences on camera. One good thing about The Home Depot chalk paint is that it can always be returned if it isn’t the color you thought it would be, as long as it isn’t tinted. They are really great about that. You may also be able to return other brands but I recommend asking the store before purchasing them. 😉

@EliLeeDesigns Жыл бұрын
I felt the Valspar was a little more matte and chalky than the others but none of them really felt “dusty” per say. As for the scratch test, I recommend prepping the surface for furniture that will get heavy use. This will keep them from chipping. I never did have any issues with any of the paints chipping on furniture I’ve painted, including a shelving unit that I restored and originally had a black satin paint on it but if you are going to be reselling, better to play it super safe.

Hello i have a campervan that has some carpet on the walls and on a surcase at the front. Im curious to know if chalk pain can be used on it? And what finish, ie wax to keep it soft? Have you had any sucess with painting carpet. Thankyou kate New Zealand x
@EliLeeDesigns Жыл бұрын
Hello Kate! My apologies for the late reply. I’ve never used chalk paint on carpet so I can’t say from experience that it would work but I’m thinking it may not be the ideal paint for it. I know they sell fabric paints that may work better for that. I’ve seen them at Home Depot in the past. Either way, I’d recommend contacting the manufacturer of the paint you’re thinking of using to ask them for the best use practices and recommendations. I hope this helps and thank you for the inquiry. It’s a great question!

@raggedyannred I purchased my Teflon sheets on Amazon but you may be able to find them in your local grocery store too. I’ve included a link in the video description box for the ones I purchased. 🙃 The Teflon sheet distributes heat evenly to make sure your iron on material is evenly transferred and also serves as a small protective barrier between the fabric material and heating element.
