The brainchild of founder Charles Thibeau, the Milk Paint Company’s original line was created for porous surfaces such as furniture, timber and cabinetry. Specially developed as a flat wall paint, their new SafePaint line gives home builders and remodelers the option of choosing responsible, organic pigments for all interior surfaces. Both paints are available in 20 elegant colors, or as a base with no pigment.

Catering to home owners, artists and craftsmen, all Milk Paint Company paints are 100% guaranteed. What is not to like?
