Rust-Oleum Eclipse Milk Paint Finish – Matte Brushed Effect, Minimal Prep, No Primer Required | Quart

Revitalize furniture with Rust-Oleum Eclipse Milk Paint

Rust-Oleum Eclipse Milk Paint helps bring worn pieces back to life while preserving their character. The water-based formula delivers a soft, matte brushed finish that highlights wood grain and texture. It cleans up easily with soap and water, making indoor projects more comfortable and convenient.

Why this paint works for your projects

• Unique brushed effect that enhances furniture detailing and pairs with both vintage and modern styles.
• Washed matte look achieved with a light coat in a V pattern, producing subtle texture without heaviness.
• No top coat needed in most cases; a one-step coating adheres well to wood, metal, aluminum, and glass.

Hands-on tips and real-world uses:

• Minimal prep: no primers required, and you can layer coats to deepen color or create a soft wash.
• Generous coverage—up to 125 square feet per quart—helping you tackle multiple pieces or larger projects in one go.
• Fast drying lets you finish projects over a weekend, with dry-to-tactime around 30 minutes and recoat after 1 hour.

How to achieve the look you want

Apply a light coat in a V pattern to obtain a refined washed texture. After drying, light sanding can introduce a weathered feel, and additional coats add depth and color variation.

Care and versatility

• Water-based formulation means easy cleanup with soap and water and typically low odor and VOC levels for indoor use.
• The finish is buildable, letting you tailor translucency and color depth by adjusting the number of coats.

Designed for a broad range of surfaces, Eclipse Milk Paint performs well on raw or previously finished wood, metal, aluminum, and glass, offering a durable yet expressive option for decor and furniture projects.
