“I contacted your company with some questions about Milk Paint several months ago and got a prompt, informative reply. I have since tried out your Milk Paint with Extra-Bond and Watco Oil and like the look very much. I plan to use it to finish the kitchen and some other built-in furniture in the house I am building.”

Bruce V.

“Damn fine helpful website. Love Milk Paint – I ‘reclaim’ previously trashed furniture. The Milk Paint texture and colors are perfect.”

Mark W.

“WOW! What a great website for a superior product! I only wish it was available in more places. I intend to talk it up. I am a design consultant and will recommend it wherever I can. I love that it is so safe environmentally. Keep up the good work.”

Lois L.

“Thank you for the info. You can expect an order from me in the future; the product is great. I can’t wait to completely finish the custom bookcase that I’m working on now. The Crackle finish is just the antique finish that I’ve been looking for. Again, thank you!!!!!”

Kenneth A.

“Thank you for your immediate response. You have a wonderful product, and I have a feeling I’ll be using it quite a bit…”

“I have been mulling around getting milk paint for a project I have for a long time. I haven’t been able to decide whether milk paint or some other paint is the way to go. But since visiting your website, I feel I have all the information I need to confirm that milk paint is the right choice for me. Thanks for all the great info!”

Lucie M.

“I know very little about milk paint but thought it would be an interesting and unique finish to a room I was refinishing. Your website was both interesting and informative. I look forward to placing my first order!”

Lisa B.

“I just mixed up my first small jar! I love the packaging and info. included with the order. Already thinking of what else I can paint. Great color chart!”

“I haven’t used your products yet, but your website is excellent!!! I am redoing the cabinets in my kitchen and have been unable to decide until I thought of milk paints…..now I can’t wait to get started!!!!!!!”

Becky G.

“Please send me a color card and brochure. I am a builder/remodeler in the Metrowest/Boston area and have installed cabinets finished with milk paint. The finish is incredible.”

Greg W.

Marlborough, Massachusetts

“This is a note of thanks and to confirm that the painting procedure was completely successful. Step by step I followed your directions. The Buttermilk painted cupboard now nicely relates to the other antiques in the room. I sanded, reapplied, distressed and then slightly softened its newness with an oil-based stain. I do appreciate you going the ‘extra mile’ and your superior customer service.”

Paula H.

Oakland Park, Florida

“I received my first order last week and had my first opportunity to use Milk Paint as well. I knew I was taking a chance, ordering a product I had never personally used before, but I was thrilled with the product. I have severe chemical sensitivities and have had to give up all my hobbies, including crafts and faux painting. I thought I would never be able to be involved in any of my hobbies again, but now I am excited about using your product and offering it to others. I started my little business this past year mostly to provide products that are more natural and less toxic. I am already planning another order soon.”

Dorothy H.

Ashland, Nebraska

“My husband and I are building our ‘dream house’, a log cabin, in western PA. I decided early on to furnish it with antiques and primitives. I also took the major step of deciding to tackle the finishing of my kitchen cabinets myself, wanting a painted, distressed look. Before visiting your website today, I was convinced that someone as unexperienced as myself (I’ve never done anything like this before) shouldn’t attempt to work with Milk Paint. However after reading the information provided, as well as all of the wonderful customer comments, I feel much less intimidated by the whole process and am looking forward to getting started this week. I must say that I have never been so convinced of the quality of a product that I have not personally used, until now. With practice, I’m sure this will be an incredibly successful undertaking. Hopefully, it will lead to more projects…I’ll update you on the outcome. THANKS!”

Chris M.

Greenville, Pennsylvania

“I saw the results of Milk Paint at a friend’s home and I am so impressed! I hope to get hooked!”

Jill B.

New York, New York

“I just wanted to say that we are extremely happy with our milk paint. We painted our living room and kitchen Marigold Yellow and our hallways Pumpkin. We got our paint at Eco-Wise in Austin, Texas. It is beautiful and it feels so good to have peace-of-mind that it will not off-gas and it will last! Thank you so much for offering such a wonderful product! We are very grateful!”

Anita & Andrew K.

“I’ve used your product twice on custom furniture that I make and can’t believe the results! Excellent product.”

Thomas C.

“I have an old Chifferobe that was my grandmother’s dresser/closet as a child. Someone stained it black at one point and it looked terrible. I decided to paint it, but didn’t want to use latex or oil. I wanted to maintain the old feel of the piece. I found your Milk Paint and mixed three parts Federal Blue with one part Buttermilk looking to create a French Blue. I painted the outside the blue and the inside Buttermilk. IT’S GORGEOUS! Thank you for selling it to the public. That project has inspired many others.”

Roni W.

Portland, Oregon

“Thoroughly enjoyed finishing my step-back cupboard with milk paint, the first time I’ve ever used it. It was extremely easy to apply and added a distinct aspect to the piece. It’s exactly what I have been looking for. It’s amazing that the simplest and most useful of items our forefathers used still has practical applications today. And to me that carryover from the past adds a uniqueness that is consoling and adds tremendously to our family’s heritage. Thanks for your outstanding efforts in preserving and presenting a part of the American way of life for all.”

Stan F.

Ft. Richardson, Alaska

“I have just finished the best job I’ve ever designed and built and, yes, the finish was a custom mixed milk paint. I used a gray stain over pine and then applied two coats of a custom mix that was a kind of cream with a little green tint. After that I sanded the edges and applied a tung oil over the top. WOW! It looked like it was one hundred years old. Add a solid hand rubbed cherry top and I had a perfect reproduction.”

Walter M.

Bedford, New Hampshire

“I just surfed around your website and wanted to let you know that I think it’s great. It is well designed, easy to get around in and has every bit of information I could ask for. I love the cows too!”

Jennifer O.

New Jersey

“I stained an unfinished pine headboard, then painted over it with your Snow White milk paint. Then I did a little distressing and sanding to let the honey colored stain show through. It looked so good I’m doing a matching armoire, then a Soldier Blue curio. Can’t wait to get started!”

Jack H.

“Since I first wrote to you I’ve completed the blanket chest with a combination of colors. I used one coat of Lexington Green, followed by a coat of the Pitch Black. I then sanded through to allow for a worn look. I just learned of your product last month, but in two projects I’ve now used 4 pints and I really like all aspects of your product. My wife loves the look, so that will only lead to additional projects requiring it’s use. Thanks.”Dave T.

Dave T.

”I just finished painting my old, pine, tongue and groove ceiling and boy does it look great. I used your slate blue and we are very impressed with how easy it was to use. The consistency was perfect. I especially enjoyed not having that old paint smell to contend with. What a great product you produce. I only wish we had a dealer closer to home. I will ask the local shops to carry it.”

Vic R.

Frederick, Maryland

“Thank you so much for your great service. I called fairly late in the day Tuesday before Thanksgiving and asked if you could possibly get a 2nd Day Air order out that day. You did and I really appreciate it!!!!!”

Marjory W.

Portland, Oregon

“THANK YOU FOR MAKING SUCH AN AMAZING PRODUCT! Your paint was super easy to work with, fun to mix and paint with, beautiful to look at, and an awesome environmentally friendly product which I will continue to use on a regular basis in my home, and which I will definitely recommend to my clients. I work for real estate developers of residential homes. We sell the homes and help their customers select finishes during the building process. Although I am not a designer, everyone thinks I am because I’ve been doing this for 4 years and have helped over 400 people to choose their cabinets, countertops, tile, etc. in their homes. Now I can tell them whose paint to buy- THANK YOU!”

Jennifer W.

Chicago, Illinois

“Your Milk Paint ROCKS!!!! Thanks for making my hacker painting skills look professional!!!! I just wanted to let you know that you make a special product and your excellence does not go unnoticed! I have been buying your paint from a local dealer in Chadds Ford, PA for a few months and have happened upon some really great results thanks to your product. recently I ordered some things from you over the phone. Not only did they arrive within a few days (earlier than I expected) but the quality is awesome! Thanks so much for simply….being! I painted a set of chairs recently with latex paint. Suffice to say I will never do that again! I’m totally sold on your Milk Paint.”

Erik J.

Lansdowne, Pennsylvania

“Thank you for your prompt response. You guys are on top of your email- I wish we could respond to customers as well as you do. I await your color chart. Since I mailed you this morning, I found a local source of Milk Paint. There is a Woodcraft store in my vicinity and it looks as though those cats sell your stuff. Perhaps I’ll stop by there this week and check them out. Again, thank you for your customer focused attitude and quick response.”

Richard A.

Houston, Texas

“I ordered my paint yesterday morning (Monday) and have it in my hand already (Tuesday) 11:30 a.m.! I cannot tell you how happy and amazed I am at your company’s service. I paint for a living and when I ran out of paint on the weekend I thought for sure I would be out of commission all week. THANK YOU SO MUCH! This is American integrity at its best!”

Maria S.

Northport, New York

“Your milk paint is absolutely fabulous! I chose Pitch Black for my first project and could not be more satisfied with the final product. Naturally, being a first time user I was a bit apprehensive and nervous. But after applying just a few strokes my uneasiness was quickly diminished. I look forward to painting many more fine pieces using your wonderful product!”

Jennifer C.

“Wow. I was asked to do a sign for a restaurant I’d done the interior for, and decided on using your paint for an aged look. I’ve never had a more fun medium, one that does what I want it to, mixes well to create a nice palette with no mistakes, cleans well and LASTS. I’m a Horrible painter, because I’d always been frustrated easily with pigments that had a mind of their own, but finally found a paint that works for me.”

Margaret P.

“Just wanted to let you know that I used milk paint for the first time and am quite impressed. I painted old plywood cabinets (after stripping and sanding) with black and then barn red milk paint and they are beautiful. The wood grain shows through. The first thing everyone does is touch them. They all comment on how they look like cherry. I am extremely pleased with my purchase and highly recommend milk paint to everyone! Thanks!!”

Lori

Carmi, Illinois

“I am blown away by your product! Whenever I painted a piece of furniture with B. Moore, it looks like a painted piece of furniture, brush marks and all, unless I did a lot of sanding. Meanwhile feeling sick from the smell & dust, then of course there is all this leftover paint which I always feel bad disposing of- wasteful and environmentally unfriendly. I put one coat of your milk paint on, and my piece looks like a master finisher did it! With no sanding! No odor! No fumes! And no waste! I will save the leftover powder for the next project. Thanks.”

Jill O.

Kew Gardens, New York

” I fell in love with this paint! I’m so angry at myself for attempting to create this look so many times in the past and failing. What a difference. I’m very excited for my order to get here and try out the new colors. Thanks again and have a great day.”

Cy S.

Casa Grande, Arizona

“I cannot remember who I talked to at your company, but they were a lot of help with my last job. I’m attaching a snapshot of the completed project. I am going to get better photos when I deliver the chest. Love your paint and friendly staff.”

Gregory S.

Banner Elk, North Carolina

“I just wanted to write quick note to let you know how pleased my husband and I were to use your SafePaint in our home. To give you a quick background on us: I am currently 8 months pregnant and we also have an amazon parrot as a pet. Needless to say, I was very concerned about painting in our home for both my safety and the well being of our parrot as well, since parrots are extremely sensitive to many things with paint being at the top of the list. I found your website and was so happy to hear that the paint was chemical free and had very low odor.We purchased the paint and my husband set up to paint a bedroom in our 118-year old home that will serve as an office. I will say I was very nervous that the paint would have a foul odor and that the paint would not adhere to the walls that have been painted over several times over the years. But to my surprise and pleasure there was virtually no odor. As you state on your website, the smell was just an earthy or milky smell which went away within a half hour. The SafePaint stuck to the wall perfectly and only required 2 coats (which latex paint would have required as well if not more). And then the project was finished. That night, you would have never known that a room in our house had been freshly painted. I was so relieved for myself but most importantly for our parrot as well. We will certainly be returning customers for sure. Thanks so much for a great and safe product!!!!”

Amy B.

Yardley, Pennsylvania

“Hi there, thanks to everybody there for being so helpful and filling our order for some 40+ gallons of Snow White SafePaint and Clear Coat on very short notice. We painted all our ceilings and walls with it over the weekend. It was great! (We did call on Saturday afternoon and left a message. We were having trouble with lumps, but finally figured out some good tricks to mixing smooth paint.) Thanks again for a wonderful product and great service! We are so happy to have found you locally.”
