Application & Maintenance
  • Surface Prep: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or loose paint; fill cracks or holes if necessary.
  • Application: Stir thoroughly; apply using a brush for best results—avoid puddling or streaks.
  • Drying/Curing: Wait ~3 hours before applying a second coat or starting to use chalk or magnets.
  • For use as a chalkboard: To prime your chalkboard, lay a piece of chalk on its side and cover the entire board liberally with chalk. Rub it in with a dry rag and then erase. Chalkboards are porous, so if you do not prime there is a risk the first markings will be there permanently
  • Maintenance: Wipe clean with a damp cloth or chalkboard eraser; avoid abrasive scrubbers that might damage the surface.
  • Pro Tip: Apply a minimum of 3 coats by brush to enhance magnetic strength and provide a smoother chalk-writing surface apply more.

FAQ's

1. What is SPO Magnetic Chalkboard Paint used for?

It’s a water-based paint that combines magnetic properties with a chalk-friendly surface. This dual-functionality allows you to create a magnetic notice board and a chalkboard in one, perfect for menus, reminders, or creative displays.

2. How does it adhere to various surfaces?

The paint can be applied to walls, plywood, MDF, and plasterboard. Make sure the surface is clean, dust-free, and properly primed if necessary, so the paint can form a smooth, durable finish.

3. How long does it take to dry?

Typically, it’s touch-dry within around 3 hours. You can apply a second coat or start using chalk once the paint has fully dried, though drying times can vary based on temperature and humidity.

4. Does it really hold magnets?

Yes. Thanks to its magnetic properties, light magnets will adhere to the painted surface. For heavier items, you may need stronger or neodymium magnets.

5. Can I write on it with ordinary chalk?

Absolutely. Standard chalk and chalk markers work well on this finish. Just wipe down with a damp cloth or chalkboard eraser to clean and refresh the surface.

6. Is the finish purely black, or are other colours available?

SPO Magnetic Chalkboard Paint typically comes in a flat black finish—ideal for clear contrast with chalk. If you need a different colour, check with our experts regarding custom or alternative chalkboard paints.

7. How much area does one litre cover?

Coverage is roughly 10 m² per litre, depending on the surface’s porosity and condition. For best results, apply thin, even coats to achieve consistent magnetic and chalkboard functionality.
