Before we dive in, here are some handy tips for using chalkboard paint like a pro:
- Chalkboard paint comes in both brush-on and spray paint forms.
- Apply the paint on various surfaces such as wood, terra cotta, paper mache, canvas, and most porous surfaces.
- Use a soft bristle brush, roller, or sponge applicator for smooth application.
- Apply multiple thin coats of paint, letting it dry in between.
- Painted projects need to be "conditioned" before use with authentic chalk (not chalk markers). Follow the instructions on the bottle.
- Most chalkboard paint only interacts with genuine chalk, not chalk markers. Make sure to test your paint before using chalk markers.
- Avoid sealing your surface, or you won't be able to write or draw on it.
