Have a happy Saturday my friends!! Hopefully I’ll be safe from the birds today 😂

My Honest Review of Fusion Mineral Paint

I recently gifted a set of fusion mineral paint from a giveaway that I won off of Instagram and I was so excited to try it out see what I thought about it because I have heard so many great reviews of fusion mineral paint. The internet seems to be raving about it and I was wondering if it held up to all of the hype.

I have only really used chalk paint before and I was also wondering what are the big differences between the two different paints, and if I would like fusion mineral paint as much as I like chalk paint too. Well friends, the verdict is in and I can’t wait to share my honest review of fusion mineral paint with you! Keep on reading below to see just what I thought about it!

My Honest Review Of Fusion Mineral Paint
These are all the beautiful colors I was gifted with- Raw Silk, Sacred Sage, Bayberry, Lichen, and Homestead Blue. I can’t wait to try all the colors out.

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

What Is Fusion Mineral Paint?

First of all, I thought I would go over what exactly Fusion Mineral Paint is in case you have never heard of it before.

Each pot of paint is hand poured in North America and it is a family owned business. They spent 10 years in research and development coming up with the perfect paint formula.

Fusion mineral paint has a built in top coat, no VOC (volatile organic compound), and it is virtually odorless. It has a smooth, self leveling application and it is made 100% from acrylic paint with no filters and it is non-toxic and lead free.

Fusion mineral paint also has incredible coverage, about 75 square foot per pint! You can read even more about this awesome company and their amazing products here.

Lichen by Fusion Mineral Paint
Here is one of my very favorite colors, Lichen!

UV Ray ResistantYesNoNo
WaterproofYesNoNo
Self-LevelingYesNoYes
Coverage ExcellentGoodExcellent

My Honest Review

After looking at all the information above, fusion mineral paint seems to be pretty promising. But did I agree with all the claims above?

The answer is- YES! I thought fusion mineral paint was amazing and I really enjoyed painting with it. I used a small sample sized pot on a very large mirror so I was super impressed that it was enough paint.

If you remember from one of my previous post (The Best Places to Antique Hunt Near Pigeon Forge), that is where I got the mirror from.

I will also share another picture of it below so you can see the size as well. The sample sizes of paint are only 1.25 fluid ounces, so I thought for sure I would have to get some more, but the coverage really is excellent.

Fusion Mineral Paintbrush
They also make the best paintbrushes too!

It also went on very smoothly and it was not hard to paint with at all. When using chalk paint, you notice it doesn’t cover as well and it also leaves behind little lines here and there.

Which if you are a perfectionist like me, it will kinda drive you crazy! Fusion mineral paint does not and I believe all of the claims above about it are true.

I also love how you don’t have to add a top coat either and that it is already waterproof. Every time I used chalk paint in the past, I had to apply a sealer after painting.

So it was nice to skip this step and not have to do it. Overall, I am super impressed with this product and I may be switching over to using more fusion mineral paint rather than chalk paint now.

My honest review of fusion mineral paint
Here is the mirror before I painted it.
Painting the first coat of fusion mineral paint
And here is the mirror after I painted it with just the sample sized pot. Incredible coverage for sure!

My Top 5 Favorite Things About Fusion Mineral Paint

In case you just want the highlights of why I love fusion mineral paint, here is a brief review of my top 5 favorite things about it from everything I mentioned above:

  1. The paint has a washable matte finish.
  2. Exceptional adhesion and durability.
  3. This paint is perfect for furniture, whether you are using it inside or out!
  4. No long re-coat time. Paint is dry to touch after just 30 minutes and ready for another coat in just 1-2 hours!
  5. No top coat/sealer required!
My Honest Review of Fusion Mineral Paint
Pin for later!

I will share another blog post soon that goes more into depth on how I transformed and painted that mirror and everything else I used for that process.

It turned out so well and I can’t wait to share with you guys! I hope you all enjoyed my honest review of fusion mineral paint and I would love to know if you guys have ever tried painting with it before too?

Let me know and tell me how your experience was with it as well!

    I love it. It’s a great way to redo tired old mirrors through but I’m a bit confused as to why you’d paint what looks like it could be a gilt gold mirror white (not that most of them are hugely valuable maybe £20-40 unless big/ pretty ornate/ round).

    Reply

      I painted it because I wanted to and it was only $15. The white matches my house better.

        It does look better 🙂 looks so good I was considering if it’s worth painting some of the mirrors I find to try and up their value but I think if your selling them it’s better to give people choice to restore to original/ paint them 🙁 but I do agree it is a really good look for it and the paint you’ve chosen has done a really good job.

          Oh yeah. I don’t think I would go through the trouble of painting it if I was selling it. I was planning on keeping it from the moment I bought it! It’s always nice to have the choice to either paint or leave it as is.

    Looks like interesting paint! I don’t do most (any) of the painting around here, but don’t like the way chalk paint feels. Is this rough like chalk paint or smooth?

    Reply
    • Charity Gentry says

      February 18, 2020 at 11:39 pm

      Yes I know what you mean. Chalk paint has a thicker texture to it. I have used a sealer on things I have chalk painted before and that helped the feeling, but as far as this fusion mineral paint goes, I do not think it has a similar feeling to it. It definitely feels much smoother to me than chalk paint. I hope that helps!

    It’s a very informative article, as I haven’t heard about Fusion Mineral Paint before. It seems to be a great product, as there is no VOC, is odorless, non-toxic, and lead-free.

Well I just thought I was looking all cute and fes Well I just thought I was looking all cute and festive at the PGA Championship yesterday, right until a bird crapped all over me.. on the very first hole too!! Swipe over for a good laugh 🤣 So then I got to walk around with bird crap all over me in the 90 degree heat all day while hubby had the time of his life 😜 But, all in all, we had a fun quick trip to Charlotte and back again! Have a happy Saturday my friends!! Hopefully I’ll be safe from the birds today 😂
