FAQs

Can I use this on plastic surfaces?

Yes, Bartoline Chalkboard Paint is designed to adhere to plastic, provided the surface is clean and free from oils.

How long should I wait before writing on it?

You should allow the paint to fully harden for 24 hours before using it as a chalkboard.

Is this paint available in colors other than black?

The current version of this product is specifically formulated for a classic black finish.

Do I need a primer?

While the paint has excellent adhesion, porous surfaces may benefit from a suitable primer to ensure a more uniform finish.

How do I clean the board after use?

Simply use a soft, dry cloth or a traditional chalkboard eraser to wipe away chalk markings.

Troubleshooting

The spray nozzle is clogging

Invert the can and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle, or wipe the tip with a cloth dampened with appropriate solvent.

The paint finish is uneven or dripping

You are likely holding the can too close or moving too slowly. Increase the distance to 25cm and apply thinner, faster passes.

Paint is not adhering well

The surface was likely not clean or dry enough. Ensure all grease, dust, and moisture are removed before application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent adhesion to multiple material types
  • Creates a smooth, durable writable surface
  • Fast-drying for efficient project completion
  • Easy to apply for both DIYers and professionals

Cons

  • Requires a specific temperature range for application
  • Needs adequate ventilation during use
  • Requires a full 24-hour curing period before use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting your project, ensure the target surface is thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and completely dry. Any dust or residue left on the surface can prevent proper adhesion.

  1. Prepare the area by masking off surrounding surfaces to protect them from overspray.
  2. Shake the aerosol can vigorously for at least two minutes to ensure the pigments and binders are properly mixed.
  3. Hold the can 15-25cm away from the surface and apply in light, even layers.
  4. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.
  5. Keep the project in a well-ventilated space for the duration of the 24-hour hardening period.

Avoid using the board for writing until the full 24 hours have passed, as early use may damage the finish.
