Bring some of the sea's graceful charm to any piece of furniture with Manatee Gray furniture paint from Dixie Belle. Perfect for upcycling and crafting, this light gray shade with soft blue undertones will give your projects a hint of beachy swagger. Who knew painting furniture could be this cool? (Manatee, more like man-ah-tee, amirite?)
With this paint there is no need to sand, prime, or seal; it's got a beautiful finish that's worth exploring. And if you're feeling adventurous, please take our finishing pads and give your lovely little project that quick buff- the smoother than butter finish is like icing on top of this already delicious cake.
- Clean your piece, preferably with Dixie Belle White Lightning Cleaner, to remove dust and grime.
- Paint with your favorite Dixie Belle Chalk Mineral Paint color using a lightly dampened brush. We also recommend using a misting bottle, to mist your piece as you paint, allowing the paint to brush on smoother.
Most pieces will take 1 to 2 coats for full coverage. Occasionally, after the first coat dries, it’ll look blotchy. Do not freak out! It’ll be beautiful after the second coat!
Sometimes you will see brushstrokes, don't worry, as the paint dries, they will disappear. Dixie Belle Paint is self leveling.
Dry time: 15 minutes - Cure time: 21-30 days
