Water has a high heat indexâit absorbs a lot of heat before it begins to get hot. This is why water is valuable to industries and in your car's radiator as a coolant. The high specific heat index of water also helps regulate the rate at which air changes temperature, which is why the temperature change between seasons is gradual rather than sudden, especially near the oceans.
Anyway, I finally bought the chalk paint and clear wax and got started. I did three coats of paint (with at least 24 hours of drying time in between) and yesterday I put on a coat of clear wax (with the uber-expensive wax brush). First of all you donât have to wait that long between coats of paint. Depending on humidity, an hour or two should be enough.
Then wax or not wax â it is up to you! Personally, I like to wax. This is just one of the many tricks you can do with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint! Besides using a paint brush-try using a sponge kitchen cabinet roller and apply a few thin even coats of paint and then lightly sand. Paint your piece with Chalk Paintâ¢ Decorative Paint by Annie Sloan and let dry thoroughly. * Then gently polish the piece with the high grit sandpaper. Basically what you are doing is burnishing your paint.
