Low VOC Black Furniture Paint
Depending on the brand, paints vary when it comes to their level of VOCs. VOC stands for “Volatile Organic Compounds” which are harmful chemicals such as biocides, formaldehyde and ammonia. VOC solvents let off toxic fumes that can irritate the eyes, nose and throat.
They can also cause trouble with breathing, can lead to nausea and have harmful effects on the organs in your body. This is why you must wear a mask when applying high VOC paints.

Surface Preparation
One of the advantages of Mezzie + Frank Chalk Effects Paint is its self-priming nature, which minimises the need for extensive preparation. However, for optimal adhesion and finish, consider the following steps:
- Clean the Surface: Remove dust, grease, and grime using a mild detergent and water. Ensure the surface is dry before painting.
- Sand if Necessary: While sanding is often unnecessary, lightly sanding glossy or uneven surfaces can enhance paint adhesion.
- Repair Imperfections: Fill any holes or cracks with appropriate filler and sand smooth once dry.
Painting Steps
- Mix Paint: Ensure the paint is well-mixed before application.
- First Coat: Apply the first coat evenly, following the grain of the wood or the direction of the surface. Allow it to dry completely, typically within 1-2 hours.
- Second Coat: Apply a second coat if necessary for full coverage. This coat will also dry within 1-2 hours.
M + F Chalk Effects can be applied with a paintbrush, paint roller or paint sprayer.
Sealing
Hardy Clear Coat: A pure acrylic sealer that intensifies the base colour and provides a low-sheen, matte finish. It's ideal for high-traffic areas like tabletops and floors. Apply one or two coats with a brush, roller or sprayer, allowing at least two hours between coats. For darker colours, thin the first coat with 25% water to prevent milkiness.
Gilly's Carnauba Polish: A fast-drying wax finish rich in carnauba and beeswax, offering a high sheen when buffed. It's suitable for decorative pieces and can be applied with a cloth in a circular motion, then buffed after 20–30 minutes. Up to three coats can be applied for increased protection and shine.
