Worked as expected.

I am new to using plaster of Paris, but I used this to make homemade chalk paint with Behr interior latex paint made up in a Benjamin Moore color and it turned out perfect! Definitely cheaper and nice to be able to choose any color I wanted. I don't use chalk paint all that often, but I would definitely opt to do this again. I was chalk painting old RV furniture rather than re-covering it and it turned out so good! The key was to water the chalk paint recipe down, spray the furniture with water and use a sanding block to work it in the fabric and then after it dried in between coats. It took three coats and then a seal with a carnauba wax since it is used in an RV and will experience temp fluctuations. It feels leathery when done. There are so many recipes for chalk paint out there and this was a cost effective way to update the '90s floral couches.

Wonderful product. I've used plaster of Paris B4 and this item works great as well. Easy to mix and apply and dries in seconds and firmly too.
