Hello, I am hoping someone can recommend a really low VOC paint. Ideally a satin/eggshell finish to be used on furniture. I have attached a photo of my recent project but the mineral chalk paint I have used is rather expensive so an alternative option would be wonderful.
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Nic87. It's fantastic to have you join us, and many thanks for your question.
You might like to have a look at the Dulux EnvirO2 range of products as they have a very low VOC of less than 1g/L. Out of that range, the water-based enamel semi-gloss would be the most suitable for painting furniture. The Dulux EnvirO2 range is available through our Special Order desks in-store. If you were interested in a chalked look, a product similar to Dulux Design Chalk Effect Paint would be suitable. The VOC for this product would be less than 2g/L but not considered a very low level.
I'd recommend Dulux PRECISION Maximum Strength Adhesion Primer White as a preparation coat because it bonds extremely well to a range of tough-to-paint surfaces, including furniture.
Please let me know if you have questions or need assistance with ordering this product.
