What Customers Are Saying

The product is versatile and can be used to achieve various distressed and aged looks on painted surfaces. Many found it easy to apply and enjoyed the control it provided over the final appearance. The wax was praised for enhancing the sheen and depth of chalk paint, as well as for its protective qualities. However, some users struggled to get the desired results, finding the wax too thick or difficult to work with. Proper preparation and following instructions closely were key to achieving the best outcomes. The wax seems effective for adding an antique or distressed finish, but may require some trial and error to master. Customers recommend using it in moderation and having clear wax on hand to lighten the effect if needed.

It dries out very quickly. Then you've got little dark specs that appear when you try and put it on.

Good Product - small amount of product my wife and I tackled a project as a test run. The paint looked good, to be expected our project took longer with the necessary steps involved to get it done.

Not a distressed appearance.

It did not really give a distressed look. I used many coats, and it really didn't matter how much I put on.
