Description
Trial Pack 3 Bundle (6 Items)
The Colorantic team has developed our own unique Colorantic chalk paint recipe to provide you with the best possible chalk paint on the market.
Easy to Apply, Even on a First Project
It's easy to paint furniture and interior design projects with Colorantic™ products! Even if you're just starting out on your first project, or are now an expert, we're sure you'll fall in love with our products. Our chalk paint with chalky matte finish contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Means that it contains no solvent that will propagate in gaseous form in the atmosphere. Added colourants contain only trace amounts. Our chalk paint is non-toxic, lead-free and complies with Health Canada standards.
Colorantic™ requires little or no preparation depending on the project surface. We recommend a preparation product (such as Shellac) if your furniture dates from a previous era or has been in contact with smoke. Colorantic™ chalk paint has high coverage and dries quickly, so you can finish a project in no time.
The company also offers a variety of accessories, such as brushes, cleaners & varnish remover, paint, hand soap and even stylish buttons to finalize your upholstery and restored furniture projects.
You can get these items separately or buy them as a set.
Colorantic offers a variety of batches for its customers.

This band is painted in the shade recorded for this product. The chosen finish, the light in the room and the colour underneath will all make it vary.
Screens lie about colour. A painted sample does not.

It Grips Without Sanding
On previously painted or varnished wood, scuffing with an abrasive pad is enough. Full sanding is only needed if the old finish is flaking.
Two Coats in One Day
About an hour between coats at room temperature. A piece started in the morning is back together by evening.
Water-Based, from Start to Finish
Brushes, rollers and spills clean up with warm water. No solvents, and almost no odour after a few hours.
Delivery and Pickup
Estimated delivery between Tuesday, November 17 and Friday, November 20

How Much Paint for Your Surface?
Coverage depends first on what you’re painting. Here’s what one litre covers in practice, depending on the surface and how it’s prepared.
Bare Wood
- Coverage
- 9 m² per litre
- Coats
- 2 coats
- Preparation
- Sand with 180 grit, dust off, prime tannin-rich woods.
Bare wood soaks up the first coat. Plan on two coats and lower coverage than on other surfaces.
Previously Painted or Varnished Wood
- Coverage
- 12 m² per litre
- Coats
- 2 coats
- Preparation
- Degrease, scuff with an abrasive pad, wipe dry.
On a surface that’s already sealed, the paint stays on top: that’s where coverage is at its best.
Interior Walls
- Coverage
- 11 m² per litre
- Coats
- 2 coats
- Preparation
- Wash, fill, let dry completely.
A matte wall repainted in a similar tone may need only one coat.
Melamine, Laminate and Metal
- Coverage
- 10 m² per litre
- Coats
- 2 coats
- Preparation
- Degrease with alcohol, then a bonding primer — no exceptions.
It’s the one step you can’t skip: without a bonding primer, the paint chips at the first knock.
The Questions We Get Asked
-
Do I need to sand before painting?
Rarely. On previously painted or varnished wood, scuffing with an abrasive pad is enough to open up the surface. Full sanding is only needed if the old finish is blistering or flaking.
-
How many coats should I plan for?
Two, in the vast majority of cases. One is enough to refresh a similar shade; plan on three when a dark blue or red has to disappear under a white.
-
Is a primer necessary?
On wood, plaster and drywall, no. On melamine, laminate and metal, yes: a bonding primer, otherwise nothing holds for long.
-
Can a painted surface be washed?
Once protected with wax or varnish, yes: a damp cloth and mild soap. Chalk paint left bare stays porous and stains.
-
How long should I wait between coats?
About an hour at room temperature. Wait longer if the air is humid: the coat must be dry all the way through, not just to the touch.
