Mélange Paints is a small, veteran owned, woman-led paint making shop in the Houston, Texas area!   TIPS FOR USING MELANGE ONE PAINT Prior to applying any paint products, we recommend you clean your surface with Anvil cleaner or a degreaser cleaning products. When using a degreaser other than Anvil, be sure to rinse it off well with water. If using Melange Anvil furniture cleaner, there is NO NEED TO RINSE!  Sanding between coats is not required when using Melange ONE. However, for maximum results LIGHTLY sand between each coat with a 220 grit sanding pad or sponge. The Rachel brush or Zibra brushes are recommended for the smoothest application. Although Melange ONE has a built-in primer, using an additional primer is recommended in certain cases; a stain-blocking primer when painting over a surface where bleed-through is a concern or an adhesion primer when painting over a very slick surface.  Melange ONE has a built-in topcoat, so no additional topcoat is required. However, if your project requires additional protection, such as a tabletop or high-use piece, an additional topcoat is recommended for superior protection. Melange ONE may be thinned with water, if desired. Dry time between coats varies from 2-4 hours, depending on climate conditions. Full cure time is 20-30 days. Shelf life for open paint is approximately one year, depending on storage conditions and indefinitely for unopened paint.
