An acrylic painting will therefore last a long time.
Chalk and lime paint have the same matte look, but they're not the same at all. Lime paint is a natural paint, made with slake lime and pigments. Instead of a uniform color, you get subtle differences in shade throughout. When using lime paint, you use a special type of brush. On the other hand, chalk paint gives a uniform color finish, and is easy to paint on with a regular brush or roller.
A fine chalk paint is great for painting walls and furniture, as well as decorative items made of paper mache and chipboard. Chalk paint is also perfect for all kinds of decoration techniques: patination, distressing through sanding, and crazing.
