Curious why you applied a coat of the gray paint first and then the white?

[@amdhcds]

Look great!! Kudos

[@AshleysConsciousLife]

[@abbygoudzward3061]

Does “chalk paint” eventually wear off like chalk would?

[@theressab4ever]

Thank you!

[@krystall3830]

Is there a reason you used a grey coat first then did the white coat? could you have just done the white off the bat?

[@AshleysConsciousLife]

Good question, I was just following the steps of the BYOT video, I'm sure it has a purpose...just not sure what other than giving it more of a uniform base coat?

[@1Cocoletti]

Nice job. How much coverage does the one can cover?

[@AshleysConsciousLife]

Plenty! I had more enough leftover after this project to paint other things in my house.

[@aleeasieben9374]

Where is your rug from? love it!

[@AshleysConsciousLife]

There should be links in the description box to all the rugs ( :

[@victoriacruz9250]

Does this now have a matte finish? Or what
finish does it have?

[@AshleysConsciousLife]

I'd say matte

[@voodle48]

you could put a veneer of natural stone right over the top.

[@theressab4ever]

Where did you buy the stone for your fireplace?

[@AshleysConsciousLife]

They were installed back when my house was built...sorry not sure.

[@gmcd530]

Did you refinish your kitchen again?

[@AshleysConsciousLife]

Yes, just repainted it white, I'm posting the finished result on Sunday!

[@albertohernandez7926]

:)

[@rickmiller6604]

Black soot on white paint? Seems like a chronic dirty problem.

[@supermankelly]

To much white. No point having the grey coat if want that thick.
