Our milk paint is so easy to use. Just mix it with water and paint it on.
| } |
For most jobs use a one-to-one ratio of water to paint powder. Two coats of this creamy consistency will yield a solid, opaque coating. Add more water as desired to use the milk paint as a wash or stain. |
| } |
Change colors by mixing two or more of the paint powders. |
| } |
Stir by hand, by drill, or in an electric blender at low speed. |
| } |
If painting on a sealed surface, add our EXTRA-BOND into the first coat. |
| } |
Paint with brush, roller, or spray. |
See our Applications and Techniques pages for a wide array of effects.

Water/Powder Mixing Tips
| Mix One Part Milk Paint Powder* |
With One Part Water |
Add water gradually until you reach desired consistency.
Paint will thicken a bit as it stands- simply add more water as needed.
For smoother paint start by mixing thickly, as a paste, then add more water as desired.
Complete instructions may be found in every package of paint and in the Product Bulletin.
Small quantities (for example): Add 1 Tbs. powder to 1 Tbs. water. Add 1 cup powder to 1 cup water, and so on...
*Note: SafePaint powder/water ratios differ from the Old Fashioned
Milk Paint ratios. Be sure to read the SafePaint Product Bulletin with mixing instructions for SafePaint for Walls.
