Thank you for being honest in a way other YouTubers aren't about this product. The fingernail scratch test was so telling, as was the bleed through on the wood. I have learned the hard way to always scuff sand and use shellac-based primer.

This is excellent. Thanks for the candid review, I have to say I like this paint but get frustrated at the claims because best practice is not to skip steps, like scuff sanding and top coating. Great video 👍

I like a little brush mark. It gives it some texture.

[bobstl]

Not sure if it is a recent add or not, but the DB website now has a video which shows step #1 as a scuff sand. Plus, I would expect for the scratch test to fair a bit better after at least a week or so.

I painted a dresser with this paint and it turned out beautifully. It was very easy to work with and did a wonderful job of self levelling. I brushed it on and was left with no brushstrokes.

the dings and dents show character to the piece of furniture. I just purchased this paint after researching several other all in one and chalk paints. Yes, it's probably best to wait a week or so for the furniture to cure. I plan to clean and sand first for best adherence. Nice job and great tutorial!

I would love to see you do a test like this with Melange “One” paint to see how it does.

Really appreciate this thorough review! I've used this paint a couple times myself and I think it works pretty well, but it's not as "simple to use" as they say it is. You have to scuff your piece really well or prime it to get it to adhere properly. And the brush strokes are inevitable. I personally would rather just use a chalk paint, since I have to do the same amount of work.

Thank you for the review. I have been wanting to try this brand of paint and I appreciate the heads up.

These videos are great. Thanks for sharing!

This is so helpful! Thank you for a very honest review🙌

[brookegeorgiton]

I love this paint. It goes on so smooth. I like it better than chalk paint. I did scuff sand it

[LoriM]

Thank you for doing this review! I love the color, but I don't think I'll be buying the silk paint because in having to do all the added work that already has to be done before applying chalk paint, it's just cost effective to stick with chalk paint. I love reviews and they are much appreciated!

Great review! I've tried the Silk paint. Didn't love it! Think the hardware is upside down??😉

[susanchaney]

Thanks to all of those who gave responses.

[teriolsen]

Good timing. I was just thinking of trying it. It is expensive so I was wondering if you think it’s worth the price?

[K.PO]

If you use sand then use BOSS, under silk would it help with a smoother finish??

[tatpens]

Good honest review 👍. But in reality this piece would never have bled through anyway.

What do you think is the BEST selve levelling paint?
