Description
Aubusson Blue Chalk Paint by Annie Sloan is one of my all time favourite colours for use on antique furniture. It gets its name from the blue found in classic Aubusson rugs from 18th Century France. It is a dark teal shade that can be darkened by adding a coat of dark wax. When creating a characterful worn look, this colour works perfectly, especially on antique and vintage furniture.
- For best results apply the paint with either a chalk paint brush or flat brush.
- Once you have finished painting, we always recommend using either an Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or chalk paint Lacquer to seal and finish. Apply with a wax brush or soft cloth.
- You can use a Sanding pad to smooth the paint or create an aged effect.
- Please be aware that the colour shades may look different on your computer screen to real life. For a true representative we strongly advise to use the hand painted colour card.
- We offer all paints in either a 120 ml tester pot or 1 litre tins.
- A one litre tin will cover approximately 13 square metres.

This paint is amazing! I pour a little paint into a container, and then dip my brush into water just before I dip this into the paint because it will thin it out a bit, giving a smooth look. It covers beautifully in 2 coats! I can’t wait to buy more colours!
