[substeps] You may need to wear a dust mask when applying chalk paint to the furniture. Chalk paint comes in many different colors and textures, so work with a clean rag or cloth. Then, wipe down the foundation, paint, and other items still on or near it. [substeps] Scrub every nook and cranny, too, applying chalk over all areas.
