It thickened up super quick, even as I was stirring it! I threw the first two batches out and also had to throw the remainder of the third lot out after slapping it really quickly on my project until it dried. I used a recipe that seems to be standard although I've found some that have heaps more plaster of Paris than I used. Mine was to mix 1 & 1/2 Tblsp water with 2 Tblsp PoP then add 1 cup of acrylic/latex paint. Could it be the heat (it's mid January and we're in the middle of a heatwave)? I really want to have a go at this but am disappointed with the paint thickening up to putty consistency within a minute. Any suggestions?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-64282906840210968972013-11-03T10:09:35.573+11:002013-11-03T10:09:35.573+11:00best result with lime are mix a couple of sieved t...best result with lime are mix a couple of sieved tablespoons with water until same consistency as the paint you are using. Let it soak an hour or so then mix with the paint.<br /><br />plaster of Paris paint, again, sieve it, mix 2 Tbsp with warm water to creamy consistency, stir for 5 minutes adding more water if it thickens too much, you should end up with about a cupful, mix with a cupful of paint, combine well, add acrylic artist paints if you want to alter colour.<br /><br />if paint thickens during use simply add more water. I usually use 3 coats, it must not be too thick for wood, just normal paint consistency. when it is dry I do sand VERY lightly, last coat is thinned down. I dont wax, I varnish, or not! my paint is only used for garden projects. Ive even painted old toilets using thick paint dabbed on, each subsequent layer sticks to the next, is quite textured when finishedforgetmenothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07949151505250498512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-62002282798018849372013-09-21T12:34:51.079+10:002013-09-21T12:34:51.079+10:00Hi Fiona,

The wall will not have any wear but is behind lounge and buffet etc. I was thinking of using a colour like Taubmans 'Augusta' which a linen or ecru colour, or similar using a wide brush not a roller. I really want that old lime look. Have you used your chalk pain on walls?<br />cheersLeonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08431726568888991867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-7425509924757672012013-08-27T05:46:08.723+10:002013-08-27T05:46:08.723+10:00Thanks Anthony but Porters Lime Paint is not suita...Thanks Anthony but Porters Lime Paint is not suitable for furniture and their chalk paint is chalk board paint which is a little different to what I'm talking about here.

It is recommended to wax after painting then sand- I know, against everything you have learned....but try a sample board using the before wax sanding and the after wax sanding and see how they work for you with the recipe you have. Also, the sanding after waxing- the wax kind of rolls off in balls and you need a higher grit sandpaper- like 120 and up. This method leaves a silky soft feel and the idea is that the wax and paint bond for a super durable finish.<br />fingers crossed for you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-21676860919038945082011-12-02T22:18:28.826+11:002011-12-02T22:18:28.826+11:00Nice chair!

It feels a bit like cosmetic foundation, so has a soft powdery feel to it, rather than a grainy texture. When looking at your close-up pics, I could see that your paint has a more textured finish than ASCP. <br /><br />JackieBarmaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15409207093456246202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-56721068202525371552011-12-02T15:06:07.511+11:002011-12-02T15:06:07.511+11:00Love the chair!
