Once widely known but unjustly forgotten today, milk paints offer an interesting alternative to modern polymer-based paints. The main advantage of milk paints is that they are completely eco-friendly. All the paint’s components are of natural origin; it contains no preservatives, biocides or organic solvents that could have a particularly negative impact on health and the environment. Decorative milk paints are based on natural milk proteins, which, once dry, provide a breathable and durable protective layer on the surface. The paint provides equally good coverage on mineral surfaces (plaster, filler, brick, stone, ceramics, earthenware, etc.), plasterboard, as well as wood, plywood, chipboard, fibreboard, MDF and cardboard. It is particularly suitable for painting wooden items, papier-mâché, furniture, balustrades, cladding, picture frames and decorating other interior items.
Milk paint has a unique matt finish, resulting in a pleasantly velvety surface. The rich, slightly muted shades of this paint create an atmosphere of peace and harmony. With milk paint, you can recreate the colour palette of the Victorian era, create a colonial-style décor, and ‘age’ interior items and furniture.
The paint is supplied as a dry mix packed in an airtight container. The mix dissolves easily in water. This is very convenient – you can use exactly the amount of paint you need. Any remaining dry paint can be sealed and stored for up to 3 years.
This paint opens up a wide range of creative possibilities: you take part in its preparation yourself, mixing colours to create your own unique shade. This allows you to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the pre-industrial era, when every craftsman made his own paints, drawing on the secrets and experience of previous generations.
