Hemway - Premium Chalk Paint - Jet Black 1 L | Chalky Matt Shabby Chic Finish for Interior Furniture & Walls | Quick Dry & 1 Coat

This was my first time using Hemway chalk paint, and I chose it over other well-known brands because of the excellent colour options available and based on the reviews I read. I am so pleased that I chose to work with this paint!I used Juniper Blue to upcycle an old wooden door to use as a headboard. The paint viscosity was a pleasure to work with, and dried quickly and evenly. I did minimal preparation in the old door before painting, and the paint adherence is excellent. I’m writing this review nearly one year on from doing the headboard project, and the durability of the paint has proved to be great. The colour is stunning, adds such a statement to the room…I’ve just placed another order for more chalk paint with Hemway. Planning to upcycle some more furniture, and can’t wait to see the results!I’ve used other well-known brands of chalk paint before, but found the viscosity so thick it would leave brush marks. In contrast, this Hemway chalk paint went on a dream, and didn’t leave brush marks.I highly recommend this paint.

Absolutely beautiful paintExcellent coverageBeautiful chocolate brown colour although it was for my back door so it looked much lighter due to being in direct light so I added a nip of black.Only needed one coat .Definitely recommend

great paint great colour, unfortunately i had to go on to hem way site to order more as amazon had no more, so going straight to hemway website to order it from now on. sorry Amazon.

I used this as an undercoat, and it performed exceptionally well. I taped over it and was able to peel the tape off without any paint coming off with it. The finish looks great, and the product is easy to use—simply mix and apply with a brush or roller, then wait for it to dry. I applied two coats, but that was mostly to be cautious; one coat would likely have been sufficient.

Great paint ! Easy application and super finish !

Excellent just what l need to transform an orange pine wardrobe into a beautiful cream modern one. Each piece had 2 coats but l was very pleased with the transformation. I wouldnt hesitate to buy again if l meeded to transform another piece of furniture

I have used various brands of chalk paint to paint furniture and other items. I got this for a baby changing table we are putting in our nursery. I had an idea of what ‘racing green,’ meant and it included vintage autos reminiscent of pine and evergreens and a dark look. This is not that in the least. It is more of a deep emerald after drying. Initially, upon opening the canister, it is so bright I almost didn’t want to use it, but I’ve used enough paint in my lifetime to know deeper colors usually dry at least slightly darker. It was still not nearly the color I was hoping for, so I sealed it with dark wax to achieve the color and patina I’m going for.I chose chalk paint for my project because it’s non-toxic, low odor, dries quickly, and usually has thick coverage requiring fewer coats and required prepping of the piece to be painted. This is a thinner consistency than I’m used to, but was quite low odor and easy to use.The pros: it covered well once I did the third coat even on finished pine. Low-odor and dried quickly (within a half hour and then totally overnight.) The color is deep and rich and very pretty, despite not being ‘racing green,’ in my opinion. It blended well and I can barely see the brush strokes. I wanted to use a roller, but my furniture required a brush in parts and due to COVID-19 I am unable to purchase supplies anywhere but amazon and couldn’t get a roller in a decent amount of time as we live in Ireland. I’m pleased with the way it dried, the brush strokes blending smoothly.The cons: multiple coats needed to cover. Color is not ‘racing green.’ Requires additional product to bring to correct color. It’s incredibly pricey for what you get compared to some chalk paint I’ve used in the past and due to the color needing dark wax, the additional purchase put my project slightly over budget.Overall, I am pleased with the results and would use the product I have leftover for other projects, but without this pandemic, I never would have spent so much on a small can of chalk paint that isn’t the correct color.I’m including photos of the project before, during, and after so you can judge for yourself!

Amazing paint! Dries so quickly and looks amazing! Would definitely buy again. The colour is beautiful
