Wise Owl One Hour Enamel — 1987

Meet 1987 — a soft, worn ballet rose with a vintage, dusty warmth that feels like a favorite piece you've loved for decades. It's romance without the sugar: gentle enough for a nursery dresser, grown-up enough for a bedroom vanity or a curvy accent chair. As an enamel it cures hard and scrubbable, so this tender pink can live on a high-touch piece and still wipe clean — no wax, no topcoat, no fuss.

One Hour Enamel is Wise Owl's premium water-based acrylic enamel — a beautifully hard, durable finish that needs no primer and no topcoat. It's self-sealing, so the color you brush on is the protection: it levels smooth, cures to a washable, scrubbable surface built for cabinets, doors, trim, and everyday furniture, and you can recoat in about an hour. Low-VOC and low-odor with easy soap-and-water clean-up. Proudly made in the USA.

How to use

Wipe your piece clean and give slick or glossy surfaces a light scuff — no separate primer needed on most surfaces. Stir well, then brush or roll on thin, even coats, letting each dry about an hour before the next; most projects need just two. Because One Hour Enamel is self-sealing, there's no wax or topcoat step — just let it cure fully before heavy use. Clean brushes and spills with warm, soapy water while the paint is still wet.
