Description
Wooden displays and boxes with Colorantic paint colours (choice of colours)
A Creamy Matte Finish, Non-Toxic and Lead-Free
Colorantic™ DIY chalk-based paints, a creamy chalky finish is non-toxic. It comes with no lead content. And the bases contain no volatile organic compounds (VOCs). What's more, the pigmentations added for the colourants have small amounts of VOCs, less than 60g/L.
We ensure that our chalk-based paints comply with Health Canada rules and regulations.
Eco-Friendly Paint Made in Quebec
Colorantic chalk-based paints are environmentally friendly. In fact, instead of using conventional metal cans as many paint companies do. We decided to pour our products into plastic containers with white screw-on lids to extend the life of our paints. In addition to being environmentally friendly, our chalk-based colours have a smooth, creamy texture.
Our Unique Chalk Paint Recipe
The Colorantic team has developed our own unique chalk paint recipe. The result is the best chalk-based paint on the market.

Wooden Displays and Crates
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

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.
