The typical topcoat recommended for chalk-painted pieces is paste furniture wax (wondering what that is? You can read more about that here). Whether you want to just change the color with a new coat of chalk paint or try out a different type of paint, it’s important to ask a few questions before you start so you can take the right prep steps. I’ve got good news for you! The answer is YES, you can! It makes sense then why one of the most frequent questions I get these days is “Can I paint over chalk paint?” Maybe their tastes have changed and they’re ready for a new color scheme, or maybe that chalk painted desk isn’t proving to be as durable as they want it to be and a new paint job promises better results. So a lot of folks are starting to look at those chalk-painted pieces from five years ago and asking what it would take to paint them again. It’s also plenty of time for new types of paint to come on to the market–paints like Fusion Mineral Paint that promise the same ease of use but work a bit differently than chalk paint.
It’s been a little over five years since chalk paint first became popular, which is a lifetime in the world of home decor.įive years is enough time for color trends to change 3 or 4 times, for “Farmhouse style” to transition to “Boho”, and for navy to become the new gray.
