Can this be used on walls? For example, the stairway where little kids’ hand prints always seem to dirty up the wall?

Yes, absolutely. I've used it on the walls in my powder room, which has blue grasscloth.

can this product be used over chalk paint antique wax or finishing wax?

I don’t think it can be used over wax. Just the chalk paint. I always start off with sateen. Then I add aging powder to dead flat and wipe on areas I want to age. Then I add another coat. I will never go back to waxes!

Can this be used to remove or dull the sheen on a semi-gloss wallpaper?

Yes, you can apply a final coat of dead flat to kill the sheen. Please test the dead flat finish on all wallpapers to ensure compatibility. Apply the dead flat finish sparingly and brush out well. Over-application could result in misting. Do not apply over uncured oils.

Which is better to apply over chalk paint, the wax finish varnish or the decorator’s varnish?

Either one will protect chalk paint, but some prefer the wax finish varnish because it more closely duplicates the waxy / velvety texture of traditional wax finishes.
