DecoArtSatin Enamels Acrylic Paint for Furniture, Cabinets and More, 8 fl. oz Jar, Seaside Blue (Pack of 1)

This paint is amazing! I bought it after reading an article on painting cabinets and it has not disappointed. It self levels and dries to a matte and hard finish. It’s paint so while there is the chance it’ll scratch off over time, I haven’t seen this in just over a month of daily use. It dries very quickly and applies easily with a foam roller. I did 3 coats for coverage but could have gotten away with 2. Between the cabinet doors and the island itself, it took about 3-4 of these little containers for 3 coats of coverage. Definitely worth the money!

I started painting my kitchen cabinets with this paint and found it really great to work with. As others have mentioned it’s easy to control, no dripping or splatters, goes on easily and evenly, levels itself well, and seems to be durable.I did find when I got towards the end of the jar the paint thickened somewhat and went on less well. So be aware of that and thin it if necessary. While I am primarily using the gray I’ve cut it with a bit of white, and the white was quite a bit thicker than the gray for some reason. Maybe it was an older batch? Not sure.Unlike some people I have found that it adheres better without primer, at least on my oak kitchen cabinets. Not sure why. If I were doing a lighter color like the white, I would prime anyway so that there is no bleed through, especially on oak. However with the darker gray, I’m not so worried about that.This paint has a nice sheen to it, and although my project is still in process it feels like it will hold up aswell, as other people have reported.The only issue is the seller just carelessly threw all 10 jars in a cardboard box, with one pathetic little air bubble for cushioning. The box was damaged, and a couple of the jars broke open in transit, spilling the paint all over the rest of the jars.So in short, would definitely buy this paint again, and would never use that seller again.

I am a DIY that has done a lot of furniture products. I checked their website before painting to see if there was more information about application than is on their small jar, but I didn't see any. I was excited to try this paint, and my first project was a bathroom cabinet. I disagree with their no primer needed advice. I went over a dark cabinet and had bleed through after a while. So I primed it, then painted it again. (It is my experience that you never regret priming furniture first, so lesson learned again.) No more bleed through. I like to roll my furniture when possible for a smoother finish, only rolling in one direction (no back and forth like you do when painting a wall). I had poor success doing so with this paint. It left bubbles all over, so I went against my normal painting technique of only rolling in one direction going back and forth, and that did not get rid of the bubbles. I had to knock the bubbles down by lightly going over it with a paint brush. Unfortunately, using a paint brush does leave faint brush marks, and that just bugged me. Next time I will try a sponge type roller and see if I have better luck. When I do, I will try and remember to update this review.UPDATE: I’ve done a few more projects with this paint, using a small roller (and a paint brush where needed). I use a small roller (the skinny kind in best available) because a large one would probably soak up at least half of the small jar of paint. It leaves bubbles when rolling, but I’ve learned they disappear on their own. I did a bathroom cabinet that is used by two parents and three younger kids. It has held up really well for the past ten months.I wash with TSP, then prime with good primer paint. I will always prime before using this paint. It prevents bleed through and I believe it helps with adhesion. I lightly sand between coats. Based on the great durability, this paint is now my go to paint for furniture projects. I have found their coverage estimate of two coats for 20 square feet to be accurate.Update Dec. 2018: It's been over a year and the kitchen and bathroom cabinets still look good. And obviously, they get a lot of use. I have done other projects, and have discarded my rule about only rolling in one directions. I roll back and forth, and then I do it all in one direction to finish it off.

Used for art.Looked like it had been opened… shame on the seller. : won’t buy from this seller anymore. Partially gone, protective round piece not attached. Used & returned? Most likely. Not happy with the seller at all!!

I love the paint itself but the color was greener than the blue I anticipated. I used it as it took longer than expected to deliver. It turned out beautifully and mixed in with my colors anyway! The bathroom cabinet was around 50 years old. Now it looks almost brand new.

I like the color. I used it to paint outdoor planters.

The paint container was damaged and left paint all over the shipping bag.

Make sure you read the directions before applying, shaking is a must.
