Using Chalkboard Paint Around the House
Easy steps to applying chalkboard paint.
Materials Needed
- Tape Measure
- FrogTape® Multi-Surface Painter's Tape
- Chalkboard Paint
- Primer
- Brush
- Foam Roller
- Putty Knife
- Level
- 220-Grit Sandpaper
- Paint Tray
Step 1: Pick a smooth surface, whether you're painting a whole wall or just a section.
Step 2: Use a tape measure to map out the size of your section of chalkboard.
Step 3: Mask off the area surrounding your chalkboard section with FrogTape Painter's Tape.
Step 4: Lightly sand over the section you'll be painting. This will help the chalkboard paint stick.
Step 5: Apply two coats of paint, letting the first coat dry completely before applying the second.
Step 6: While the second coat of paint is still wet, remove the painter's tape.
Step 7: Once the paint is fully dry, prepare it by rubbing a piece of chalk over the entire chalkboard surface.
Enjoy your new chalkboard!
