Nooky Gossip 29: BRAND NEW - FUSION MILK PAINT! SILK Sample Sticks & Fan Decks! Gorgeous Greys In The Spotlight Transformation! Register for Evolve Membership for Shopify Support!
Milk Paint Made Modern!

Fusion Milk Paint is now available Shabby Nook! Milk Paint comes in powdered form – giving you control over how much or how little paint you want to use. It is much thinner than most paints but gives fab coverage – it absorbs into the wood fibres, or, if you want to use on a non-porous surface, just add some Fusion Ultra Grip to help it bond to the surface. Milk Paint gives a matte, chalky finish and will require sealing with a top coat. It only takes about 30 minutes to dry and cure – super fast compared to most other paints!
