Troubleshooting

Chalk is difficult to erase.

Ensure you are using a damp cloth and not a dry one for full erasure. If residue remains, try a slightly diluted vinegar solution on the cloth, then wipe with a clean damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

Chalkboard surface feels rough.

This may be due to chalk dust buildup. Clean thoroughly with a damp cloth and ensure it's completely dry before use. If the roughness persists, it may indicate damage to the coating.

Chalkboard wobbles on the counter.

Ensure the countertop surface is level. You can also place a thin, non-slip mat or a folded cloth underneath the base of the chalkboard for added stability.

Chalk marker ink does not adhere well.

Make sure the chalkboard surface is clean and completely dry. Some chalk markers may require shaking and priming before use. Test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
