We recreated the Old Milk Paint formula in 1974 to provide an authentic finish for our hand made reproduction furniture. Early American Colonists and Shakers painted their furniture and interiors with Milk Paint using a formula that dated back to Ancient Egypt.
Real milk paint's exclusive formula is not a repackaged paint or a simulated milk paint. Our milk paint formula will remain useable for a minimum of a two-week period after being mixed with water.
Milk Paint is a traditional long-lasting paint made from milk casein, clay, earth pigments and lime.
