A water-based, non-toxic finish for use over Milk Paint to protect against stains, dirt, and abrasion.

 

Use over milk paint or stained/raw wood for a durable and abrasion resistant finish.  Our Top Coat Finish Finish is one of the highest quality, low toxicity water based finishes on the market and is a great alternative to solvent based products.  Can be used on cabinets, floors, doors, toys, etc.

**Top Coat Final Finish will NOT even out the mottled, streaky appearance that milk paint is known for or change/deepen the color (for that, use an oil based finish such as our Oil Wax).  This product will seal the milk paint but keep the exact look of raw paint.**

 – Matte finish.  Perfect over milk paint to keep the chalky, flat look.  Also great over wood to keep the raw look without deepening the color.

– Pint covers 44 sq ft, quart covers 88 sq ft and gallon covers 352 sq ft approx.

– Increases washability.

– Keep from freezing.

– Do not apply below 55˚ F or in humid conditions.

– Test before using over a large surface of a dark paint.  Product may dry slightly white/cloudy if applied to thick or in a humid environment.

 – Water clean up.

–  Interior use only.

 – Formulated without formaldehyde preservatives, toxic mildewcides or fungicides.

– Can be used over chippy milk paint if applied in thin coats.  A light sand after the 1st coat has dried may be necessary if any of the paint has raised before proceeding with a 2nd coat.

**Note: may not protect against certain kitchen oils.**
