Thank you for this introduction to General Finishes Milk Paint. I had no idea that it came in so many colors! I have been wanting to paint our kitchen cabinets and looks like this will fit the bill. Great video!
Milk paint can easily be made at home. No need to buy pre-made mix or the powder. Pickling lime, low fat milk and color. Contrary to what this man says, milk paint can be stored in the fridge for a few days. Give it the smell test like real milk.
C'mon... call it what it is. That's just latex paint. GF wants to mimic the colors and sheen of milk paint, and that is fine. They're using some of the same coloring agents, great. But don't add to the deception by making it out to be something besides latex paint.
Respectfully, can you provide a source that mentions the latex content? I ask because this looks like an interesting product, but I have a severe latex allergy and would like to find an alternative to latex paint. I checked the safety data sheets (formerly called MSDS) on their site and it says it's an acrylic paint. The additional ingredients are propane-1,2-diol (propylene glycol, a common food additive) and powdered pigment, such as titanium dioxide. I can't find reference to latex, and would rather not risk a reaction by trying it.
@@jaymzx0 Admittedly, I was using "latex" paint in the sense of a water-based, synthetic resin type of paint. Acrylic paint is commonly oil-based, synthetic resin paint. This misleadingly labeled "Milk Paint" might be water-based and using synthetic resins more similar to Acrylic paint. It is not using casein proteins as the primary binder which is what defines milk paint.
This commercial is misleading at the very least and disgusting if you ask me. First of all, this is not milk paint. It does not even contain casein protein. It's just a acrylic paint, preventing to be milk paint. The actual milk paint have zero VOC and non-toxic. This is not! Second, it is funny that he purposely peaches powder form as a drawback. What a shame. The so-called premixed milk paint has a shelf life of 1-2 years, like most of other acrylic paints. For the true milk paint, not only you can make it yourself, but in its powder form, it can be stored indefinitely. You only need to mix the amount you need. How is that a drawback?
Paint does not stick to wood. Primer? Yes. Mixing primer and paint together is the biggest joke that ever hit the painting industry. It’s like someone trying to impress mommy for another cookie.

Really nice looking table. The paint color really set off the top.

Oh, I thought this was going to be a video on "how to apply milk paint", rather than a commercial...

Would this be suitable for an aquarium cabinet paint? If you got the paint surface wet, would it ruin the paint finish?
I’m not a blue colour fan, but I really love this! It’s a nice way to incorporate storage into the living room.
Very good video. Excellent explanations. I have just subscribed to your channel so many thanks.
Does it require any type top coating like traditional milk paints?
Yes, a top coat will help protect the finish. This guy is just schilling for the paint company.
very nice looking paint. Can you use a sealer on the paint after applying like a poly?
@Todd Brill cool thanks
So can you?
Yes, a sealer can be used.
What is the name of the color? Twilight or China Blue?? Great coffee table!!!
Milk paint that doesn't contain milk protein ...?

I feel like this is a direct commercial for General Finishes... And it seems you intentionally showed bad results of the milk paint powder.
I never return paint to my container. I don’t want contamination.
This is not milk paint.
This is an add for acrylic paint that pretends to be milk paint, not a how to video for milk paint. Please title your videos more appropriately.
