Annie Sloan Tilton Chalk Paint is a deep, warm mustard yellow inspired by Deep Cadmium Yellow pigments.
Annie Sloan Tilton Chalk Paint is a deep, warm mustard yellow inspired by Deep Cadmium Yellow pigments. Its rich, joyful colour brings warmth and character to furniture and interiors, making it an excellent choice for colourful painted furniture and statement pieces.
Tilton is a beautiful mustard yellow furniture paint with a warm, earthy character. It is richer and deeper than a bright lemon yellow, making it particularly versatile for traditional, vintage and contemporary furniture.
Use Tilton on cupboards, dressers, tables, chairs, desks and other furniture to create a warm focal point. It can also be used on interior doors, where its rich yellow colour can create a welcoming and characterful feature.
Tilton is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a warm mustard yellow furniture paint rather than a pale, pastel or bright lemon yellow.
For best results, apply Annie Sloan Tilton Chalk Paint with a Chalk Paint Brush or Flat Brush. Chalk Paint is designed for furniture painting and can be applied to a wide range of surfaces without extensive preparation.
Tilton can be used as a single colour to create a bold statement piece or combined with other Chalk Paint colours to create a more layered decorative finish.
It works particularly well on dressers, desks, cupboards, tables and chairs. Because of its rich mustard tone, Tilton can turn an otherwise simple piece of furniture into a strong focal point.
Tilton can also be used on interior doors. Once painted, protect the surface with an appropriate Chalk Paint Lacquer to provide a durable finish suitable for everyday use.
For a vintage or aged appearance, allow the paint to dry and then lightly sand selected areas around edges, corners and decorative details. This creates gentle wear and can give the furniture a more naturally aged appearance.
Once the paint has dried, protect your finished furniture with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or Lacquer. Clear Wax can maintain the colour while darker waxes can add depth and emphasise decorative details.
One litre of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint covers approximately 13 square metres. Actual coverage will vary depending on the surface and application.
Please be aware that colours can appear differently on screen. For the most accurate representation of Tilton, we recommend using a hand-painted Annie Sloan colour card or a 120ml tester pot before starting your project.
