As for DIY it is the lack of latex or acrylic... it allows you to die the fabric.. not paint it.. sk you end up with the same texture as you had before you painted

Vintage Makeovers with Melanie oh I see... I’ve never used a chalk paint, not like yours anyway, just a chalkboard paint (different?)... My husband asked about the water spritz and what that does for the process (now that we know there’s no acrylic or latex we’re even more intrigued!)

I have a project that I’ve wanted to start for a while, but haven’t found any good information on how to do properly. I have a bus that ive converted into a camper, and it came with carpeted walls. I decided to keep them as they act as added insulation. The down side is that it is dark grey berber carpet. Do you think this method would still work with the loops?

Ok so I want to change the colours of the chairs in my MH, so I managed to salvage a scrap of the same fabric. I’ve painted it twice with chalk paint, I love the colour but. Even after sanding and vacuuming I still find paint on my hands. Is there something I’m missing, I can’t sit in a blue chair and have the paint come off on my clothes. I just rewatched this video and I heard you say a couple of months to cure? I’m thinking this makes furniture nice but NOT usable for a couple of months. Am I right?

Can you use something like Floetrol as a medium to add to paint? I use it n mix in with my paints for my acrylic pouring. I’m just not sure if the Floetrol is more of a kind of sealant in a way or a mix to use for better coverage. Do I “have” to use chalk paint, if not what paints? Can I literally use interior wall paints (I have several spare tins of one colour hence I’m asking) and if so which exact paints...water based wall acrylic or ? I have a very sturdy 4 seater and 2 seater couch in a kind of dark sky/denim blue shade. Had it for 18 years and it’s very structurally sound it’s just that it’s faded in areas and had a few blotchy marks on it plus cat scratches on a couple of arms. I can’t get it recovered professionally as it’d be around 3 thousand in costs. May as well get new couches for under that,,,, sooooo I’m considering the paint job. This chalk paint every one talks about isn’t all that readily available in Perth West Australia where I live that I know of. I have seen some brand of chalk paint but it’s pretty expensive for small tins so I wondering is other regular acrylic or house wall paint will work. I see some put fabric softener in with water also, then sanding inbetween each coat, up to 4 coats or until it’s a decent coverage. I must admit I am very nervous to try it and I “will” try a section underneath first. Do you have fb and messenger as I may actually need to ask a few more things in detail with you...if that’s possible. I’m Lisa Saxon Toohey on fb messenger......it would really help me out a lot if you could message n chat to me about it. I’m an unemployed aged care occupational therapy assistant and have neck n back injuries so am finding it harder to find a job n keep it which means less dam $ and having to consider painting my couches.
