- Steps to Use Annie Sloan Chalk Paint®
First off, if this is your first time to use Chalk Paint® you’ll want these tools to make your project go quickly and easily!If you are nervous about trying Chalk Paint® for the first time, then I would start with a small item that is insignificant. While I did my first project on a large dresser, it was a cheap one from...I would only use this type of paint (chalk paint) if you are going for the distressed, chippy look. I’ve never actually tried to use it to paint something without distressing it, but I have painted...The brush I use depends on what type of look I want. If I want a more brushed finish, I’ll use a natural bristle brush made for chalk paint (like this one).

2. Gather your Supplies.
See the supply list above.
3. Remove Hardware & Putty Holes (if needed).
If your piece of furniture has any hardware that can be removed, then remove it. If it can’t be removed, then tape it with painters tape. If you plan on changing out the hardware, then you may need to putty it and sand it down. If there’s any part of the piece that needs sanding, then now is the time to do that. Although, I like all of the imperfections and how Chalk Paint® brings those out.
