Heirloom Fusion mineral paint
Superior to English and American chalk paints, FUSION ultra-adherent mineral paint can be applied to all surfaces, without a primer or undercoat. It is ready to use and provides a matte finish, just as authentic as milk paint. Fusion paint does not require a topcoat, but you can apply one to create lustrous or patina effects, or to increase its resistance to water and abrasion. Fusion mineral paint is highly durable and easy to apply. It offers excellent coverage, which in almost all cases, requires only one coat.

PREPARATION: THE SURFACE MUST BE CLEAN AND DRY. CLEAN WITH PHOSPHATE-FREE ORGANIC TSP DEGREASER. SURFACES OTHER THAN BARE WOOD SHOULD BE LIGHTLY SANDED. FOR GLASS, METAL, OR GLOSSY PLASTIC, WE RECOMMEND APPLYING A LAYER OF HOMESTEAD HOUSE ADHESION AGENT FIRST.
APPLICATION: FUSION IS APPLIED WITH A "BLUE JEANS" SYNTHETIC BRISTLE BRUSH OR, FOR A SMOOTHER FINISH, USE A VERY DENSE BRISTLE BRUSH LIKE THE STAALMEESTER OVAL BRUSH. IT ALSO APPLIES VERY WELL WITH A ROLLER. STIR THE PAINT WELL BEFORE APPLICATION. ALL COLORS CAN BE MIXED TOGETHER TO CREATE A MULTITUDE OF SHADES.
To create a distressed effect: use the wax puck to prevent the paint from adhering to areas you wish to distress. WARNING: Varnish will not adhere to wax.
FINISHING: THE PAINT IS DRY TO THE TOUCH AFTER TWO TO THREE HOURS.
To create an antique effect (wear), sand the surfaces with flexible waterproof SIASPONGE abrasive sponges.
Although it is not mandatory, adding a topcoat will improve the sheen, durability, and make the painted surface much easier to maintain.
Apply a wax after 4 hours. You can use Fusion wax, Homestead House waxes, and clear or colored Carbamex paste wax to create patinas.
Wait 24 hours after application before applying the Fusion Tough Coat sealer or a varnish like Blanchon Initial for surfaces exposed to moisture and abrasion. For outdoor surfaces, use Blanchon Marine Varnish.
