If a surface looks especially iffy, you can go up to a 1:1 ratio. If you still want some chipping for a distressed look, many painters use half or even a quarter of the recommended amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere at Eco Building Products, we offer Extra Bond in two variants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweet Pickins Extra Bond.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the match for Sweet Pickins Milk Paint, and it is available in four sizes.

Wait 24 hours before applying the second coat, since recoating sooner can reactivate the bond and cause the first layer to lift. Mixed paint with Extra Bond lasts only a few hours before it starts to gel, so mix only what you need for that first coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBegin with a thoroughly cleaned surface, free of dirt and oils, and use a cleaner that leaves no oily residue. Apply at temperatures above 60 degrees and never let Extra Bond freeze, since it becomes unusable. Because needs vary by surface, a small mock-up on the actual substrate is always worth doing first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves adhesion to previously painted or finished surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmentally safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple to use: add directly to mixed milk paint, with no extra steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy cleanup with soap and water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMix \u003cstrong\u003e2 parts milk paint to 1 part Extra Bond.\u003c\/strong\u003e Full instructions are included on the package.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eImportant\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo not freeze.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo not apply below 60°F.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tab2\" class=\"tab-content\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; border: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-top: 1px dotted #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 22%; padding: 12px 16px; text-align: left; border: none; font-weight: 600;\"\u003eBrands\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 12px 16px; text-align: left; border: none;\"\u003eSweet Pickins, Old Fashioned Milk Paint\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-top: 1px dotted #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 22%; padding: 12px 16px; text-align: left; border: none; font-weight: 600;\"\u003eSizes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 12px 16px; text-align: left; border: none;\"\u003e4 oz. sample, pint, quart, gallon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Milk Paint","offers":[{"title":"Sweet Pickins \/ Sample (4 oz.)","offer_id":67935950668082,"sku":"XB-SP-SMP","price":7.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sweet Pickins \/ Pint","offer_id":67935950700850,"sku":"XB-SP-PT","price":20.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sweet Pickins \/ Quart","offer_id":67935950733618,"sku":"XB-SP-QT","price":32.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sweet Pickins \/ Gallon","offer_id":67935950766386,"sku":"XB-SP-GAL","price":76.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Old Fashioned Milk Paint \/ Sample (4 oz.)","offer_id":67935950799154,"sku":"XB-OF-SMP","price":7.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Old Fashioned Milk Paint \/ Pint","offer_id":67935950831922,"sku":"XB-OF-PT","price":20.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Old Fashioned Milk Paint \/ Quart","offer_id":67935950864690,"sku":"XB-OF-QT","price":32.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Old Fashioned Milk Paint \/ Gallon","offer_id":67935950897458,"sku":"XB-OF-GAL","price":76.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/7897\/6562\/files\/extra-bond-6684642.jpg?v=1792242550","url":"https:\/\/eco-buildingproducts.com\/products\/extra-bond","provider":"Eco-Building Products","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
