This company's name is also its main product and mission -- producing old fashioned milk paint; the kind that was used centuries before the sale of commercially made paints. The paint, made from natural materials: milk protein, lime, earth pigments and clay fillers, comes in 16 historical, rich colors. It can also be mixed with white primer and a translucent base with pigment for a variety of hues, tones and shades.

The paint, says the manufacturer, is durable and will not fade. Since it is free of petrochemicals and other toxic bases and solvents it is biodegradeable,non-toxic and odor-free when dry. It can be used by people who are allergic or sensitive to chemicals in other paints.
