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.
The one thing that maybe you havenât seen or heard about is how to clean the surface after itâs been painted and used. Or maybe you have and itâs just me, and Iâm the one whoâs out of the loop. Trust me, it wouldnât be the first time. I gave our fridge at the cabin a quick redo with some chalk paint recently. I decided to âprimeâ it, which is basically covering the surface with chalk after the paint has dried, letting it sit for a few minutes then wiping it off. Well, it didnât exactly go according to plan and it ended up looking terrible. I did some research and found a quick and easy way to clean chalk paint.
