SafePaint is a milk paint formulated for use on walls. Our original formula was created for porous surfaces like wood and masonry. SafePaint was formulated for use on non-porous surfaces such as previously painted walls, prior finished wood, metal etc. 

Safepaint still has the flat finish, but is much more uniform and consistent over a large area than the original formula. It is also washable once cured, anti-bacterial and naturally mould resistant. Like original milk paint, SafePaint is made from elements that pre-date the use of petrochemicals and other toxic bases and solvents, it is biodegradable, non-toxic, and odor-free when dry. SafePaint is preferred by those who are chemically sensitive and those sensitive to the need to protect the environment.

Old Fashioned Milk Paint is the faithful recreation of an ancient homemade paint formula, containing just milk protein (casein), lime and natural earth or mineral pigments, making it environmentally friendly, non-toxic, VOC-free, baby-safe, food-safe & biodegradable. 

Beloved of woodworkers, furniture restorers, interior designers, artists and upcyclers, it is used as an authentic period finish in the restoration or reproduction of furniture or other wood projects, to achieve vintage colour in a flat, chalky finish, quite unlike any other paint.

Milk paint arrives in powder form to be mixed with water. When applied to a porous surface such as wood, driftwood or plaster, milk paint provides a breathable coating that will never chip or peel.  With Extra Bond Agent you can use Milk Paint on non-porous surfaces too, such as previously painted or varnished furniture. Without the Extra Bond, Milk Paint will resist some pre-finished or pre-painted surfaces to achieve an authentically distressed or “chippy” look.

Our November Colour of The Month is Soldier Blue.

This lovely mid-blue is a greyer shade than our Federal Blue, and is almost like a denim when painted on new wood.
