Annie Sloan Lacquer is a durable, water-based protective finish designed to seal and protect furniture and interior woodwork painted with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. Available in both Matt Lacquer and Gloss Lacquer, it provides outstanding durability while preserving the beauty of your painted finish. Whether you're updating kitchen cabinets, dining tables or high-traffic furniture, Annie Sloan Lacquer delivers long-lasting protection without compromising the character of your project.
Unlike traditional furniture waxes, Annie Sloan Lacquer forms a tough, washable surface that is ideal for busy homes and heavily used pieces. Matt Lacquer preserves the signature low-sheen appearance of Chalk Paint, while Gloss Lacquer creates a more reflective, contemporary finish. Both are easy to apply, quick drying and formulated to provide exceptional durability for everyday living.
Why you'll love Annie Sloan Lacquer
• Durable water-based protective finish for painted furniture and woodwork.
• Available in both Matt Lacquer and Gloss Lacquer finishes.
• Ideal for high-use furniture and busy family homes.
• Perfect for kitchen cabinets, dining tables, interior doors and shelving.
• Quick drying with low VOCs and very low odour.
• Easy to apply with a brush or roller.
• Washable, hard-wearing finish that stands up to everyday wear.
• Suitable for use over Annie Sloan Chalk Paint.
How to apply Annie Sloan Lacquer
Allow your Chalk Paint to dry thoroughly before applying Annie Sloan Lacquer. Stir the lacquer gently before use and apply thin, even coats using a good-quality synthetic brush or short-pile roller. Avoid overworking the product, allowing each coat to dry fully before applying the next.
For most projects, two thin coats provide excellent protection. On surfaces that receive particularly heavy wear, such as kitchen cabinets, dining tables and worktops, additional coats may be beneficial. As with all protective finishes, the lacquer will continue to cure after application, becoming increasingly durable over the following days.

Matt Lacquer or Gloss Lacquer?
Matt Lacquer preserves the beautifully understated appearance of Chalk Paint while providing excellent protection, making it the preferred choice for most painted furniture and kitchen cabinetry.
Gloss Lacquer creates a more reflective finish that enhances colour and gives furniture, doors and woodwork a polished contemporary appearance. It's ideal when you want extra shine alongside the same durable protection.
