Way Cool Design: Milk Paint Product

This blog is about everything design. Including interesting products that relate to interior design trends. While searching through the internet, I came across this really cool product. Check it out. 

Product: Milk Paint 

What is it? Milk paint is a organic coloured substance that provides a distinctive "colour-wash"  finish to surfaces. 

Pros

- Non VOC levels

- absorbs into surface, which makes it a durable paint

- never chips or peels 

Cons

- slightly alkaline, it also naturally inhibits the growth of mould and milde, which requires a finishing product to prevent these growths

Alkaline definition: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/alkaline 

Design Trend

Its saturated colours and translucent finish is great for creating antique affects to refurbishing furniture, surfaces, etc.
