Industrial Chic
This is a great industrial look
For this paint recipe, we walk you through how to create an industrial look using Urban Loft, a mid-toned grey, and Carbon Black coloured wax.
This technique works well with mid-toned to dark colours. We've used Urban Loft but all greys, dark greens and deep blues work well too.
What you will need:
- Urban Loft Chalk Paint
- Carbon Black Chalk Paint
- Clear Wax
- Round Paint Brush
- Wax Brush
- Forgotten Gold Glide
Technique:
1 - Paint in Urban Loft chalk paint using the round brush. Paint in large crosses to create subtle texture. Do two coats to achieve full coverage.
2 - Make a coloured wax using Carbon Black chalk paint and Clear wax, using a 1:1 ratio. Brush on with a wax brush and wipe off excess with a rag.
3 - Detail the edges with Gold gilding wax, using either a finger or a detail brush.
