The Lazy Range is a totally unique chalk and mineral paint with a wax infusion and has all the Frenchic qualities you have grown to know and love. It is self priming, self levelling and self sealing with no odour and is a smooth and gorgeous paint with excellent coverage. It is robust and it really is a 'paint & go' as it needs no buffing nor sealing! Simply dip, paint and go! It is also wipeable, certified EN:71-3, so is safe to paint childrens toys etc and dries in a couple of hours. It can also be sprayed too.

 

Clean The Piece Of Furniture

To get started, clean the piece of furniture you’ll be painting. Give it a wipe down to remove any dirt and lint. Sugar Soap is a great way to clean and prepare all surfaces prior to painting with a light sand.

 

Patch Holes And Scratches

Inspect your piece of furniture to identify any gouges or deep scratches that will need to be filled in before the painting can begin. Add a filler with a putty knife, level it out, then gently sand the surface until smooth. Again, make sure all dust has settled and been cleaned off before painting with Sugar Soap.

 

Tape Where Needed

Stick down masking tape where you do not intend to paint, such as doorknobs, handles or glass. This will help you create a neat edge while protecting the other material from paint.

 

Get Painting!

Once you’ve laid down some newspaper or drop sheets, it’s time to get painting! Using your brush, apply the chalk paint, working your way up from the bottom of the piece of furniture. Paint in long, sweeping strokes, going with the grain of the wood. Keep in mind that chalk paint dries fast, so work quickly to get the best effect.

If you are painting a dark piece of furniture a lighter colour, you may need three coats for solid coverage. Fortunately, you won’t have to wait long in-between coats because the paint dries so quickly. If you’re looking to create a more distressed piece, two coats of paint may be enough.
