A Little Swagger. A Lot of Soul.
A vibrant, dusty cornflower blue with cool denim undertones and a beautifully restless spirit. Midnight Cowboy captures the romance of faded blue jeans, wide-open skies, and dreamers who refuse to settle for ordinary. Named in honor of everybody's favorite cowboy, Joe Buck, the unforgettable dreamer from the classic film Midnight Cowboy, this charismatic shade has all the swagger, vulnerability, and rebellious charm of a man determined to make his own way in the world. Perfect for rescued furniture, eclectic interiors, and statement pieces with stories to tell. A little rough around the edges, full of heart, and impossible to forget. Because some cowboys were never meant to ride off into the sunset. They were born to defy expectations.
Powdered milk paint—just add water. A bonding agent is generally unnecessary on properly prepared surfaces.
Sold as dry powder. Coverage varies with surface, number of coats, and application.
Mix equal measurements of powder and water. Start with about half the water and stir into a smooth slurry, then add the remaining water gradually.
Adjust with small amounts of water for your preferred consistency. Use less water for a thicker finish or more for a translucent wash. Blend shades and layer colors to make the finish your own.
Mix only what you need. Keep unused powder dry and tightly sealed.
Start with a clean surface free of grease, wax, and loose or flaking paint. Light sanding is recommended. Primer is generally unnecessary.
Our refined formula generally needs no bonding agent. Exceptionally slick, glossy, or lacquered surfaces may benefit from Magic Bond. Test adhesion on a small area first.
Projects with extensive peeling or an unstable existing finish may require more preparation before painting.
Once the paint is dry, finish with Junkyard Goddess Hemp Oil or Hemp Wax for added protection. Follow the selected finish’s application and curing instructions.
