r/upcycling on Reddit: What are the benefits of using chalk paint on furniture upcycles vs matt or other paints?
October 26, 2023 -
I’ve been watching YouTube videos about upcycling furniture to get some inspiration for improving some of my own second hand furniture. I’ve noticed they frequently use chalk paint and I’m wondering if there’s a particular reason for it?
Is it just a “flatter” version of matt paint, that people like the look of? Or does chalk paint have an advantage with furniture, like not needing a primer or fewer coats of paint or something?

I wish the furniture refinishing was just called refinishing. Upcycling to me means taking something that was going to be trash and using it for a purpose other than its original intention. It’s still cool to refinish furniture and give it new life

You don't need to sand before applying chalk paint. It also comes in a much more limited color way and is more expensive. There are matte and some gloss options but limited. However, once chalk paint is on an item, I think it is more difficult to strip than a typical paint. For this reason, I only use chalk paint on items that are lower value - if it's a really nice piece of wood furniture I'm going to do it by the book with sanding, primer, regular paint.
