Is GF's Milk Paint a True Milk Paint?

GF's Milk Paint is not a true Milk Paint - it is premixed and does not contain any casein based ingredients. We named our product Milk Paint with the intention of putting a clear, bright, contemporary spin on an old fashioned furniture paint tradition.

It is designed to mimic the low luster finish of old world paints. It is our premium paint, carefully engineered for durability, ease of application and exterior use. All you have to do is prep your piece, stir the can and get started!

Here are some other qualities that make our Milk Paint stand out:

  • Extremely durable with great adhesion properties.
  • It is self-sealing. Additional sealant is not required if low to medium wear is expected. If extra durability is desired in high use areas or if you want a glossier sheen, GF recommends applying High Performance or one of our Enduro Professional Topcoats as a sealant.
  • Performs well on outdoor projects.
  • It's UV resistant, water resistant and scratch resistant.
  • Sprays beautifully.
  • It can be intermixed with other General Finishes Glaze Effects and Milk Paint colors to create custom colors. It is also a great companion to our water-based Stains, Dyes, Pearl Effects and Topcoats.
