General Finishes Milk Paint, Coastal Blue

No. Despite the name, it is not a powdered, casein-based milk paint. It is a premixed, modern water-based acrylic paint named for its low-luster sheen, which mimics the look of old-world furniture paint.

This is Coastal Blue, a soft seaside-blue tone well suited to coastal, cottage, and farmhouse furniture. See more colors in our wood stains & finishes collection.

No topcoat is required — the paint is durable enough on its own. However, you can add a clear topcoat finish if you want to increase the sheen or add extra protection on high-wear surfaces.

Plan on 2 or more coats for full, even coverage. The formulation dries rapidly and resists blocking between coats.

It is designed for brush application. Pick up quality brushes and finishing supplies for the smoothest results.

Yes. Milk Paint is UV resistant and suitable for both interior and exterior applications.

It dries to a flat, low-luster sheen with a satin-like look. If you prefer more shine, add a topcoat finish over the cured paint.
