it looks like your milk paint powder had been ...Hi,<br />it looks like your milk paint powder had been stored properly, as long as the container was airtight. The lime is used as a solvent for the milk protein and must remain airtight in order to be active- to dissolve the milk protein (casein). If exposed to air or dampness it can turn to chalk. It would be extremely gritty when mixing and most likely powder off the painted surface when dry. <br />I can't vouch for that particular company, but we were the first company to recreate a milk paint formula in powder form back in 1974, and our comany is still going strong, so if you are ever in the market for more milk paint check out www.milkpaint.com .
