In reply to Rane. Hi Rane. No, since I used chalk paint, you do not need to sand before painting. Just make sure they are clean of any grease/oil.

In reply to Teri.

Hi Teri. I personally have not found this to be the case with my chalk painted surfaces, which are on the INSIDE of my Casita.

I live in Texas, and summer’s are hot, and it is not unreasonable to think the interior of my camper get’s over 100 degrees when not in use.

However, I suppose it could be possible if you placed a chalked and waxed painted surface directly in the sun on a 100 degree day, and just let it sit there, that the wax could get soft and/or melt off.

My camper’s chalk painted interior is now two years old and it still looks great with the Annie Sloan paint that I used.

Hope this helps you make your decision! Happy Trails!
