Time Inc.’s popular television show "This Old House" named Rust-Oleum’s Chalked Ultra Matte Paint to its fifth annual “This Old House Top 100,” a list of the 100 best new home products of the year. Each year, the list’s editors spend months scouting, testing and culling countless new home products to identify the most distinctive, useful and innovative in seven categories: kitchen, bath, tools, home tech, building products, outdoor living and finishing touches.
“We’re truly honored to have another one of our products included on this prestigious list,” said Jim Stinner, vice president of marketing for Rust-Oleum. “It’s testament to our mission to create the most cutting-edge, durable and innovative paints in the industry.”
"This Old House" editors say that products included on the elite list are truly unique. “Home companies release thousands of new products every year and our job is to highlight the ones with staying power—those that are in some way brilliant and will make our readers’ lives better,” says Editor, Scott Omelianuk.
Chalked Ultra Matte Paint is an easy to use paint that dries to a velvety smooth matte finish. It brings new life to tired and worn pieces in timeless colors. Additionally, Chalked Paint can be distressed to achieve a vintage look that will last. Applying a Chalked Protective Topcoat adds durability, enhances color and will keep the piece timeless.
