About this color

How to use

Five steps to a beautiful finish.

  1. Clean

    Degrease the piece and rinse it well with clean water. Let it dry 24 hours so no moisture gets trapped under the paint. Most pieces need no sanding or priming.

    • Laminate or shiny furniture: sand or prime first.
    • Dark woods (cherry, walnut, mahogany) bleed through: use a shellac-based primer.
    • Flaking or chipping finish: sand it off first.
  2. Paint

    Stir well and apply with the Kacha Signature Paint Brush. The paint self-levels, so brush strokes settle out. Blend, layer or dry-brush without adding water.

  3. Recoat

    Wait about an hour between coats (20–30 minutes in dry weather, longer when humid). Plan on three coats to be safe; many darker colors cover in two.

  4. Seal after 24 hours

    Clear Finishing Wax (1–2 coats) for the traditional chalk-paint look, or Clear Matte or Satin Topcoat (3 coats) for pieces that get a lot of use. Use wax or topcoat, never one over the other.

  5. Be gentle while it cures

    Full cure takes about 21 days. Use the piece, but don’t slide things across it or scrub it for the first two to three weeks.

Questions

Before you paint.

More in the full FAQ

Do I need to seal painted furniture?

Yes. Kacha paint is a chalk-style paint, so it should be protected. Unsealed, darker colors especially will show fingerprints. Seal it with Clear Finishing Wax or with a topcoat, Clear Matte or Clear Satin. Wait 24 hours after your last coat of paint before sealing.

Can I paint over furniture that is already painted?

Yes, if the old paint is in good condition and nothing is peeling. Kacha’s preference is to remove it if you don’t know what’s underneath, because the new paint can only hold as well as the paint below it.

Is shipping free?

Orders over $100 ship free within the US.

A Color with a Heart: The Story of Café Con Leche

Before it was one of our most popular shades, Café Con Leche was a memory. This color is a tribute to Carlos’s childhood—inspired by the warm, creamy morning drink that was a staple in his home growing up. We wanted to capture that specific feeling of warmth, heritage, and comfort and bring it to your furniture pieces. When you paint with Café Con Leche, you aren’t just using a premium neutral; you’re bringing that same “home-cooked” soul into your restoration projects.

Experience the Superior 2026 Formula

Why settle for older formula’s when you can have the most updated technology in the industry? After a year of meticulous design, Kacha has created a furniture paint that redefines “Chalk Style” for the modern creator.

Why Kacha Furniture Paint is Superior:

  • The “Carlos Approved” Creaminess: Engineered for a flow so smooth it feels like velvet. It applies as effortlessly as the drink it was named after.

  • True Self-Leveling Tech: Watch brush strokes disappear as the paint settles into a professional, factory-grade finish.

  • High-Density Pigment: Deeper, richer colors with incredible coverage.
