Application areas

• Applicable in classrooms, in the kitchen, in the nursery, virtually anywhere erasable chalkboard is desired.

• Chalk is easily removed with a soft cloth or duster. Persistent chalk residue can be removed with a damp cloth.

How to apply

• Stir well before use.

• Thinning is unnecessary, but if required to obtain desired application properties, a small amount of clean water may be added. Avoid excessive brushing or rolling. Use light, even strokes to ensure an even and smooth finish.

• After 3 days, the chalkboard finish is ready for use. Before writing, condition the surface by rubbing the side of a piece of chalk over the entire surface and erase.

• This will leave a coat of chalk dust that will provide the best erasability. Chalkboard can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.

Preparation

• The substrate must be clean, dry and free of grease and smooth.
• Remove non-intact, poorly adhering and peeling layers. Sand surface and intact paint layers with 220 grit or equivalent abrasive paper or scuff pad. Irregular or very porous substrates should be treated first. Untreated wood, iron, non-ferrous (bare) metal, plastic etc. soils with a suitable primer.

Coverage

• Theoretical coverage: max. 10 m./liter.
