How to use Miss Mustard Seed Milk Paint – Outback Petticoat

• Mix approximately 1 part water to 1 part milk paint powder  by hand, with a whisk or paint mixer
• Add tepid water to container first, then add milk paint powder slowly and mix for 3-5 minutes
• Paint a test swatch to make sure desired consistency has been achieved
• If the paint is translucent or runny, it is too thin. If the brush drags and the paint appears gritty or chunky, it is too thick.  Add more water or powder accordingly and mix again.
• Apply paint evenly in long, smooth strokes with a brush or roller
• Stir paint occasionally as pigments may settle at the bottom of the container
• Drying time is approximately 30 minutes
• Two to three coats may be necessary to achieve your desired coverage and possibly more when applying a light colour over a dark surface
• Lightly sand with 120 grit sandpaper to smooth surface. Remove dust
• A topcoat is required to protect the paint and bring out the richness and depth of the colour
• We recommend MMS Hemp Oil for a natural finish or MMS Furniture Wax
• Or apply a Tough Coat for more high wearing pieces like dining tables for maximum protection
