    Awesome comparison video. It was very helpful. I was going to get country chic chalk paint and was hoping that one was going to be included in your comparison, since I’ve been seeing a lot of people using Maybe you can do another review on more chalk paints, or at least that brand. Thank you! New subbie 😊

      I felt the Valspar was a little more matte and chalky than the others but none of them really felt “dusty” per say. As for the scratch test, I recommend prepping the surface for furniture that will get heavy use. This will keep them from chipping. I never did have any issues with any of the paints chipping on furniture I’ve painted, including a shelving unit that I restored and originally had a black satin paint on it but if you are going to be reselling, better to play it super safe.

    Hello i have a campervan that has some carpet on the walls and on a surcase at the front. Im curious to know if chalk pain can be used on it? And what finish, ie wax to keep it soft? Have you had any sucess with painting carpet. Thankyou kate New Zealand x

    • @EliLeeDesigns
      @EliLeeDesigns  Pƙed 10 měsĂ­ci

      Hello Kate! My apologies for the late reply. I’ve never used chalk paint on carpet so I can’t say from experience that it would work but I’m thinking it may not be the ideal paint for it. I know they sell fabric paints that may work better for that. I’ve seen them at Home Depot in the past. Either way, I’d recommend contacting the manufacturer of the paint you’re thinking of using to ask them for the best use practices and recommendations. I hope this helps and thank you for the inquiry. It’s a great question!

    How about the brush strokes and the bleed stain.Can you make another video? Please thanks!

    • @EliLeeDesigns
      @EliLeeDesigns  Pƙed 10 měsĂ­ci

      If you are looking for a smooth/no brush stroke finish you’ll definitely want to focus on the brush you get or consider a roller. The chip brushes I used to test them all was pretty coarse which left some level of brush stroke in each sample. As for the bleed, they all did surprisingly well but from my experience the tape you use does make a big difference. I hope this helps and I will definitely consider doing another one of these videos when I get back. đŸ€—đŸ‘đŸœ

      @Kandy Cos Thanks for the feedback my friend!! đŸ™đŸœđŸ’–đŸ€— After spending so much time looking at them, I began to question if my eyes were playing tricks on me. 😂 #1 was my favorite too. I just couldn’t get over the consistency and how great the coverage was. Another color I had used in the same brand was much thinner. It’s really so interesting. Love that you’ve been posting again! đŸ„°

      It was really tough to get the best lighting to show the differences on camera. One good thing about The Home Depot chalk paint is that it can always be returned if it isn’t the color you thought it would be, as long as it isn’t tinted. They are really great about that. You may also be able to return other brands but I recommend asking the store before purchasing them. 😉
