General Finishes Melkverf, Donkere Chocolade

I’ve used a lot of paints that chip after a few months, but this one’s held up through daily use on a kitchen cabinet without a single scratch. The mineral-based formula goes on smooth and dries to a finish that feels genuinely tough, not just painted over.

The dark chocolate shade went on like a dream over my worn-out dresser, and the mineral base really does give it that rock-hard, chip-resistant finish. I’ve already knocked a drawer against the frame twice and there’s not a single mark, which honestly surprised me.

This paint covered my old laminate desk in just two coats and the dark chocolate color is beautifully rich. The finish feels surprisingly hard and smooth, like factory furniture.
