FAQ
Do I need a topcoat over Milk Paint?
No. General Finishes Milk Paint is self-sealing. For high-use surfaces, GF recommends up to 3 coats of a GF water-based topcoat such as High Performance. GF warns not to use any clear topcoat over white or light Milk Paint colors, since it may yellow over wood.
How long between coats?
Allow 2+ hours between coats and before a topcoat at 70 F and 50% humidity, longer when humidity is over 80% or coats are thick. GF's test: the coat is dry when light sanding makes powder.
Is this real milk paint?
No. General Finishes named it Milk Paint for its low-luster, old-world look, but it is a premixed acrylic with no casein, so there is no powder to mix.
Can I mix Coral Crush with other colors?
Yes. General Finishes says Milk Paint can be intermixed with other GF Milk Paint and Glaze Effects colors to create custom colors.
Can I use Coral Crush outdoors?
Yes. GF rates Milk Paint as an exterior finish and says a topcoat is not required outside.
Can I return it?
Yes. We offer 30-day returns on unused, unopened items. Opened paint can't be returned.
How fast does it ship?
Tracking is emailed when your order ships. Shipping is $5.99 under $35, free on orders of $35 or more (lower 48 + DC).
Complete the finish: Coral Crush is self-sealing, but for high-use surfaces like tabletops and kitchen cabinets GF suggests 2-3 coats of a water-based topcoat over darker colors, such as General Finishes High Performance Topcoat, Clear Satin, Quart ($41.50). GF caution, from its Milk Paint page: “Do NOT use any type of clear topcoat over white or light GF Milk Paint Colors, as it may cause yellowing when used over wood substrates.”
