General Finishes Milk Paint

General Finishes Milk Paint is a premium interior/exterior mineral based paint named for its low-luster sheen, which mimics the look of old-world furniture paint. It is not a powdered, casein-based milk paint, but a premixed modern version that is so durable it does not require a topcoat unless you want to increase the sheen.

In addition to wood, GF Milk Paint is also suitable for fiberglass, PVC, primed steel, vinyl and most composite materials.
