The chalk paint I used was Deco Art Chalky Finish Paint, color "Legacy", which I bought last year from amazon.com. Once the second color was mixed up from paint I had on hand, it was much more green, moving towards turquoise. If a blizzard wasn't bearing down on me, I would have gone to the store for a color that started out turquoise, like Deco Art's "Treasure." You can see it here on Amazon.com: http://amzn.to/2iqfiO6
I would still use two coats, though, and put both of them on with the stencil brush. The two slightly different colors really make a difference when you're painting something all one color.
If you make your own copy of William the hippo, please show him off on my blog. I would love to see how it comes out. https://www.UltimatePaperMache.com
