Applying Clear Topcoat Sealer
If you're not familiar with Clear Topcoat Sealer by Artisan Enhancements®, this blog post is for you! If you're familiar with it but need a bit of a tutorial on how to apply it properly, this blog post is also for you.
Clear Topcoat is a soya-based, non-toxic and No VOC penetrating liquid topcoat that is absorbed well by Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan, Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint, and other water-based paints. It's both interior and exterior grade, and is the only sealer that can be applied to Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint® waxes (once they're cured and dried for 24 hours). It's applied over a completely dry painted surface with an ultra-smooth brush or roller, such as Artisan Enhancements®' Topcoat Brush, or a smooth synthetic-bristle brush. These tools are essential to help minimize brush strokes and help your topcoat look flawless.
