Rust-Oleum 750ml Magnetic Chalkboard Paint - Black

Product Information

If your surface is properly prepared and already painted, you shouldn’t have to apply another layer of primer. However, applying a layer of water-based primer is a good idea when using the paint on new absorbent drywall. That way, the magnetic paint should go further, and you might not need to apply so many coats. 5. Apply the Magnetic Paint Like any paint, the magnetic type has a shelf life. Depending on the formula and manufacturer, the paint can last between 12 months and 5 years for an unopened can. But even magnetic paint with a five-year shelf life can go bad sooner, depending on the storage location and temperature. Opening the tin and improperly resealing it also expedites expiration.

You’ll need to put in extra prep work and prime the surface thoroughly to ensure solid adhesion. Using magnetic paint is a DIY project you can easily accomplish on your own with a bit of prior experience with painting and some solid prep work. However, if you’re nervous about attempting to use magnetic paint or don’t have the time, you can always hire a local interior painter to do the job for you.

With iron dust particles embedded into a liquid medium, magnetic paint seeks to mimic the properties of an old refrigerator or metal cabinetry. In short, it makes the walls magnetic.

It’s also great for your focus as there is much less clutter around your working or learning space. Don’t underestimate the importance of thoroughly stirring paint before using it. This step is even more important with magnetic paint, as the heavy metal pigments fall to the bottom of the can. Using a paint drill attachment or taking advantage of a stirring service at your local hardware store helps nail down the best blend. 2. Tape and Tarp the Space A major factor that determines whether you’ll be able to adhere magnets to your surface is by using the right magnets. Clunky refrigerator magnets will likely fall off the surface, while smaller rare earth magnets are the most likely to stay and hold up your decor. Even with the right magnets, the surface won’t be strong enough to hold multiple pictures or pieces of paper simultaneously. Magnetic paint will only allow you to display one photo or note per magnet. When both coats of primer have dried (after around 24 hours), you can then apply your chalkboard paint . Use the paint according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure you get the best finish. You may find that the paint goes on more easily with a roller.
