FAQ's
General Product Questions
Does Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint work?
Yes, it does. Smarter Surfaces Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint turns any wall into a writable and magnetic surface. It can hold up to eight A4 sheets with just one neodymium magnet. Plus, it comes with a 5-year warranty, and if you apply it correctly, it lasts a long time.
How do you make chalkboard paint magnetic?
To make a surface both magnetic and chalkboard, start by applying two to three coats of magnetic plaster, then add a layer of black chalkboard paint on top. That way, you can write with chalk and use magnets on the surface.
Can you use regular chalk on a magnetic chalkboard?
Yes, Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint works just like a regular chalkboard, so standard chalk works great.
Which type of magnets work best with Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint?
For optimal performance, we suggest using Neodymium magnets, commonly referred to as rare earth magnets, as they are the strongest magnets available.
Can I repaint over Magnetic and Chalkboard Paint?
Yes, you can paint over ultra magnetic chalkboard paint. If you decide to repaint it, please be aware that it will lose its chalkboard or magnetic capabilities. You may not be able to write or hold items over it. To refurbish the old painted surface, reach out to Smarter Surfaces experts for the best solution.
What’s the difference between Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint and regular chalkboard paint?
Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint (containing 75% magnetite) allows you to write and utilise magnets for holding papers, whereas regular chalkboard paint only offers a writable surface similar to a traditional chalkboard.
Which paint should I use, Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint or magnetic whiteboard paint?
The main distinction between Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint and Magnetic Whiteboard Paint lies in the writing materials used. Chalk is used for the chalkboard, while dry-erase markers are for the whiteboard. Also, your choice may depend on aesthetic preference, as one offers a black surface and the other a white one.
Application & Usage
Can I use Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint in a classroom?
Yes, you can use Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint in classrooms. It’s a great option for educational spaces since it makes any area a two-in-one teaching tool.
Is it possible to apply Powerful Magnetic Chalkboard Paint over already painted surfaces?
Yes, you may apply Powerful Magnetic Chalkboard Paint on any smooth wall that has been previously painted.
What is the drying time for Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint?
The typical drying time between coats is 2 to 3 hours. However, environmental temperature can influence the drying speed. You can begin using the surface 24 hours after the entire application is finished.
Is Strongest Magnetic Chalkboard Paint applicable to wood surfaces?
Yes, you can apply ultra magnetic chalkboard paint on wood or wooden stud-wall panels. Just make sure the surface is smooth and primed for better bonding.
Is ultra magnetic chalkboard paint appropriate for concrete walls?
Yes, ultra magnetic chalkboard paint is suitable for concrete walls or breeze block. Just ensure the surface is smooth and well-primed for optimal adhesion.
Can Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint be utilised outdoors?
Ultra Magnetic chalkboard paint can be used outside; however, its durability and performance will not be covered by guarantee.
Does Chalkboard Magnetic Board paint work on glass or metal?
Yes, our chalkboard magnetic board paint is effective on both glass and metal surfaces. Just make sure the surface is smooth and properly primed to ensure better adhesion.
Can I use both magnetic and writable surfaces together?
Yes, it is possible to use both at the same time. You can write with chalk and use magnets in the same area concurrently. The magnetic plaster and chalkboard paint create a dual-purpose surface.
Can I use toy magnets, fridge magnets, or any magnetic objects on magnetic chalkboard surfaces?
You can use any magnetic items on magnetic chalkboard walls, and they will adhere. However, toy magnets or fridge magnets by themselves may not be powerful enough to securely hold papers or other lightweight items. To effectively hold papers, you might need to attach a neodymium magnet or a high-quality magnet to the toy or fridge magnets.
More robust magnets like Neodymium (Neo) or rare-earth magnets can hold light and small objects without the need for glue. To support heavier items, you can use a magnet strip on the extra strong magnetic chalkboard surface.
Surface Prep & Priming
Do I need a primer before using Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint?
You only need to use a primer if you're working with untreated or super-absorbent surfaces before applying the paint.
Cleaning & Maintenance
How do I maintain a magnetic chalkboard wall?
After applying to your wall, you should condition your strongest magnetic chalkboard surface by rubbing a piece of chalk across the surface and then wiping it off with a damp cloth or duster.
Functionality & Performance
How powerful is the magnetic capability of the paint?
The Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint can hold over eight sheets of A4 paper with just one magnet.
Will standard refrigerator magnets function on Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint?
Standard fridge magnets may work on customised ultra-magnetic chalkboard surfaces, but we highly recommend Neodymium Magnets due to their superior strength.
Can Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint support papers or notes?
Yes, the ultra magnetic chalkboard paint can securely hold more than eight sheets of A4 paper with just one magnet, making it ideal for showcasing notes and reminders.
Is Chalkboard Magnetic Board Paint prone to scratches or damage?
Yes, the surface can be scratched by hard chalk or fingernails, so it’s recommended to handle it with care to maintain its quality.
What is the lifespan of Ultra Magnetic Chalkboard Paint?
