what is Glimmer Mist Chalkboard?
The need for an semi-opaque paint became very apparent with the original Marshmallow Glimmer Mist, which is now the top seller in Tattered Angels' Chalkboard range. Marshmallow became so popular Tattered Angels decided to create a whole line of this creamy semi-opaque paint.
Currently you would now know Marshmallow as the color Chalk in the Chalkboard line. The same beautiful Glimmer as Glimmer Mist, yet the base will give you a semi-opaque finish with tremendous depth of color.
Available in a clear bottle with the color swatch featured on the back, for perfect matching.

Chalkboard Paint was designed to give you an semi-opaque mist finish with a touch of glimmer. This paint works well to soak in to papers with a super fast dry time. With a light mist delivers a heavy color saturation. Several sprays will give you an opaque finish. Dye any fine fabirc or paper quickly. Multiple coats will give you a solid intense coating. The more you spray the more coverage you will get. Before you spray you will want to practice the shaking technique to get the most of that great glimmer and glitter in each spray. Hold the bottle straight up and shake side to side multiple times. You want to avoid flipping the bottle or turning the bottle over as much as possible. For a demonstration of the best way to shake up your Glimmer Mist paints – CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO. For a light, evenly misted look hold Chalkboard away from your project, and spray, such as you would when applying hairspray. For a thicker, raindrop application hold Chalkboard closer to your project while spraying. Doing quick half pump sprays will give you the dotted effect however can back up the glimmer in the sprayer cap causing clogging. To achieve an even smooth finish add glimmer mist to paper surface. Apply a paper towel evenly over sprayed surface and remove extra Chalkboard by rolling a brayer over the paper towel. For a pooling effect, which gives intense color, spray Chalkboard very closely and directly on your project. You can let Chalkboard air dry or use a heating tool to speed up the drying process. Please note that while Chalkboard is attractive when just using one color, layering multiple colors also adds a beautiful richness to your projects. Chalkboard is perfect on fabric, but is water based and is not designed for apparel projects that will be washed. When spraying on paper, it may curl, secure down with heavy objects to allow the finished project to dry flat.
