I invite folks to experiment along with me so that we can "know" this for sure, but I've found the the Real Milk paint has very solid sticking qualities.Peter Galberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02206420121702258974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839508507864602815.post-35389006661105645932013-06-27T16:20:11.463-05:002013-06-27T16:20:11.463-05:00Peter, there is no need to mix the paint with a bo...Peter, there is no need to mix the paint with a bonding agent so it will adhere to the shellac?Garynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839508507864602815.post-18482816652625194092013-06-16T09:49:28.971-05:002013-06-16T09:49:28.971-05:00I have always preferred the Real Milk Paint brand....I have always preferred the Real Milk Paint brand. It is definitely harder to burnish but just a nicer paint all around. <br /><br />I have found that a shellac base is really great for getting the first coat be really smooth but have never done it between coats. Then again I don't do layered colors really.<br /><br />Nice post. I need to try those Mirlon pads. Look like a better product for the rub down than I am using.<br /><br />Has anyone ever used the Annasova milk paint? They sell theirs in a liquid sealed in a paint can. I have spoken to the owner and it sounds like great stuff but never ended up using it.

I have had this happen, but I have also had the paint last for a few days. Both brands have a lot of staying power, but I have found the ease and consistency of the Real Milk paint companies product makes the job easier. In the past, I have spoken with both companies about their products.Peter Galberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02206420121702258974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839508507864602815.post-3015311444526303812013-06-15T19:41:40.676-05:002013-06-15T19:41:40.676-05:00Hi Peter,

I got some milk paint on my jeans a couple of years ago, and I am amazed it has held onto the fabric after so many wash cycles. Have you made any attempt to contact the other milk paint company?<br /><br />SteveSteve Kirincichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07143073306973836007noreply@blogger.com
