About One Step Paint
One Step Paint is our premium, water-based chalk-style paint that transforms furniture, fabric, and everything in between. No stripping, no sanding, no priming. It dries to a soft, chalky matte finish that's perfect for vintage, distressed, layered, and Old World looks. While decorative pieces don't require sealing, we recommend adding a wax or sealer on high-use items like dining tables, chairs, and cabinets to protect against everyday wear.

Love this paint! Color was exactly like picture, applied flawlessly with small paint roller and didn’t have a strong paint smell.
Product went on easiest of any paint I have ever used! Color was perfect but I will be purchasing a color more suitable to complimenting a sea blue/green kitchen counter.
Store owner replied: Thank you so much for your kind review! We are so pleased you had a great experience!
Took 3 coats over an originally dark brown cabinet. Didn't dry completely smooth but that doesn't bother me. Highly recommend a coat of poly for bathroom projects. Paint immediately started chipping with daily use.
Store owner replied: We recommend letting it cure 5 to 7 days before everyday use! It did turn out beautifully. Thanks for sharing!
This paint is so easy to use. This was my first project and it turned out great. The color Mai Dragon is a perfect shade of blue
I love this paint color. The application was quick and easy with no paint smell. It dried so fast.
Great service
I was very disappointed in the color. The selection I made was nothing like the color I got. I thought it would dry darker so I used it and it dried a lighter shade even more. Not likely to order again
This paint worked out great! The piece I did was so hard to get to with the paint, I actually laid the cabinet on its back to get into all the hard angles. The piece was originally black, but the paint covered very well.
Beautiful color and goes on your furniture so easy.
So easy to use. Am thrilled with the results!
This was a red stain that needed updating. Used Kensington Black Gel Stain and Mai Dragon which is my current favorite Amy Howard color.
It was here and ready to go and I ha E used it on a couple projects - im still working on !
Perfect one coat paint with a beautiful finish!
