Art Creation Vintage Chalk Set Beiges by Talens — 2 x 100 ml paint jars with crackle medium

Talens Art Creation Vintage Chalk Set Beiges contains two 100 ml jars of beige chalk-style paint and a crackle medium formulated for decorative finishes and upcycling projects. The paints deliver a matte, velvety chalk appearance suitable for transforming furniture, wooden surfaces and small decorative objects. When used with the included crackle medium, the set enables controlled crackle patterns that give surfaces an aged or vintage look.

Advantages

The chalk paints provide an opaque, matte coverage that adheres well to prepared wood and previously painted surfaces without requiring extensive priming. The included crackle medium is designed to produce visible crackle effects when applied between layers, allowing predictable ageing and texture. The 100 ml jars offer a convenient size for sample projects, furniture accents and craft work while minimizing waste. The neutral beige tones are formulated to blend easily with other paints and decorative finishes.

Suitable for

• Refinishing and upcycling small furniture and wooden frames
• Decorative craft items, home accessories and accent pieces
• Creating vintage-style finishes, distressing and staged patina effects
• Model displays, props and small DIY restoration tasks

Key specifications

• Contents: two 100 ml jars of chalk-style paint plus a crackle medium
• Finish: matte, chalk-like appearance
• Colour family: beige tones suitable for neutral and vintage palettes
• Recommended substrates: prepared wood, previously painted surfaces and small decorative materials
• Application: brush or sponge application for paint; crackle medium applied between layers

How to use

Prepare the surface by cleaning and lightly sanding to remove loose paint, grease and dust. For best adhesion, apply a primer or base coat if the substrate is glossy or heavily sealed. Apply the first coat of chalk paint evenly with a brush or sponge and allow it to dry according to ambient conditions. To obtain crackle effects, apply a layer of the crackle medium over the base coat and let it become tacky as specified by the product instructions, then apply a contrasting top coat of chalk paint; as the top coat dries, the crackle medium will create a network of fine cracks revealing the underlying layer. Allow the finished piece to dry thoroughly before light handling.

Usage recommendations

Test the process on a scrap piece to determine drying times and crackle intensity. Use thin to medium paint layers for more pronounced crackle, and seal finished surfaces with a compatible wax or varnish if extra protection is required.
