Recipe for Making Chalkboard Paint
So you don’t want the traditional black or dark green chalkboard?
Material:
- 3 teaspoons acrylic paint in your color of choice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons glazing medium – water based
- 1/2 teaspoon powder tile grout
Instructions: mix well. Apply in stages, letting each coat dry before you paint another. In between coats lightly sand with fine sandpaper. Finally, after you’ve completed painting and sanding, condition your new chalkboard by covering the chalkboard with chalk by using the side of a piece of chalk and coloring the entire area, wipe off and you’re ready!
