    @sharonpetty the color was selected from a Benjamin Moore deck, but the paint is from general finishes called milk paint. We had the Ben Moore color mixed by general finishes. They will color match any swatch with this product. We used their satin sheen milk paint, which actually has a very low, flat sheen.

    Did you use an oil based paint?

    Ebony,

    Please see my company's profile for the thread of comments and answers to common questions. Or of course you may ask me as well.

    This image is the most viewed painted kitchen image on Houzz.com, and has well over 19,000 entries into Ideabooks. It's amazing. Here is the answer to your question, as answered in a previous thread on our professional page.

    The paint color is from the Ben. Moore deck, Verdigris, but we have it mixed in our cabinet finishes. For this kitchen we used Milk Paint from General Finishes. It's not actually a Milk Paint, it is 100% acrylic, but it looks very similar.


    Thank you for your kind words!

    cdfetters,

    We only use waterborne finishes, except in the case of wipe on oil/wax for some bare wood.

    The painted finishes here are as mentioned above, and the wood is finished with clear waterborne finishes.

    Thank you!
