What are the Ingredients in Annie Sloan Chalk Paint?

December 9, 2021 Corinne Segura

What’s in Annie Sloan Chalk Paint?

Based on my sense of smell and comparison to other paints I didn’t find it as potent as regular paint but it does resemble an artist’s paint (possibly a slight acrylic odor, but nothing close to as strong as a regular zero-VOC acrylic wall paint).

They claim extremely low VOCs.

This ingredient list is based off of the company’s SDS sheets, industry knowledge, and patents of other chalk style paints:

The Ingredients in Annie Sloan Chalk Paint:

  • Calcium carbonate 25-50% (known)
  • Titanium Dioxide white pigment 0-10% (known)
  • Diiron trioxide 0-3.5% (known)
  • Alcohols (known)
  • Ammonia (known)
  • Pigments, in colors other than white (known)
  • Acrylic binder (likely*)
  • Talc (likely*)
  • PVA or other non-acrylic binder (possible*)
  • Propylene Glycol (possible*)

*These ingredients are in no way confirmed by Annie Sloan nor have I personally run chemically testing on the product. These guesses are based on industry papers and patents of other brands of chalk-style paints.

Check out my detailed review of using Annie Sloan Chalk Paint on the walls and a comparison to clay paint, mineral paint, and Milk Paint here.
