Annie Sloan Black Wax is a decorative finishing wax designed to add depth, shadow and definition to furniture painted with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. Rich in pigment, it settles beautifully into brushstrokes, carvings and textured surfaces, creating subtle contrast and enhancing architectural details without overpowering the painted finish. The result is a sophisticated, contemporary look with cool, smoky undertones that beautifully emphasise craftsmanship and texture.
Applied over a coat of Annie Sloan Clear Wax, Black Wax allows you to create anything from delicate shadowing to bold decorative effects with complete control. Whether you're highlighting carved furniture, creating an industrial-inspired finish or adding dramatic definition to painted cabinetry, Black Wax delivers a distinctive finish full of depth and character.
Why you'll love Annie Sloan Black Wax
• Creates cool shadowing and architectural definition.
• Enhances carvings, mouldings, brushstrokes and textured finishes.
• Adds depth and contrast without the warm tones of Dark Wax.
• Easy to apply and blend for subtle or dramatic decorative effects.
• Best applied over Annie Sloan Clear Wax for maximum control.
• Leaves a beautifully soft, low-sheen finish.
• Perfect for contemporary, industrial, Gothic and modern rustic interiors.
How to apply Annie Sloan Black Wax
Begin by sealing your Chalk Paint with a thin coat of Annie Sloan Clear Wax. This protective base allows the Black Wax to glide smoothly across the surface and gives you plenty of time to blend, soften or remove excess wax before it cures.
Using an Annie Sloan Wax Brush or a clean, lint-free cloth, apply Black Wax sparingly, concentrating on recessed areas, decorative mouldings and textured surfaces. Blend carefully with a clean cloth until you're happy with the level of definition. Build the effect gradually for the most natural-looking finish, adding additional wax only where extra depth and contrast are required.
Where can Annie Sloan Black Wax be used?
Annie Sloan Black Wax is ideal for:
• Painted furniture
• Cabinets and sideboards
• Decorative mouldings
• Carved furniture
• Shelving
• Mirrors and picture frames
• Interior woodwork
• Architectural details
• Decorative accessories
It is particularly effective on textured finishes, carved details and furniture where you want to introduce subtle contrast and dramatic definition without creating the warmer antique effect produced by Dark Wax.
