Application advice

Prepare the surface carefully, ensuring it is clean, dry and dust-free. Apply the first coat evenly and allow to dry completely before applying the second coat. This step is crucial for proper adhesion of the magnets.

Before applying the third and final coat, lightly sand the surface with fine abrasive paper. This intermediate sanding improves the adhesion of the final coat and ensures a smooth surface, perfect for chalk writing. Respect the drying times between each coat for a durable professional finish.

Once all three coats have been applied and completely dry, your surface is ready for use. Test the adhesion of the magnets and erasing quality before putting it into service.

Pro tips

On site, inform your clients that the magnetic force depends directly on the number of coats applied: three coats are the strict minimum, but four to five coats will guarantee optimal magnet adhesion, including those with photos or drawings. Make sure to thoroughly stir the tin regularly during application, as metal particles tend to settle at the bottom. For projects combining magnetic surface and blackboard, apply the magnetic coats first, allow to dry for at least 24 hours, then apply the blackboard paint: this order ensures the best functional and aesthetic result.

FAQ

How many coats are needed for magnets to hold properly?

A minimum of three generous coats is required to achieve functional magnetic strength. For optimal performance to hold heavier items such as framed photos or multiple sheets, plan for four to five coats whilst respecting drying time between each.

Can I paint over magnetic paint?

Yes, you can cover the magnetic paint with a finishing paint, particularly blackboard paint to create a surface that is both magnetic and erasable. Wait for the magnetic coats to fully dry before applying the desired finish.

Do I need to stir the product during application?

Absolutely. The magnetic particles in the paint tend to settle at the bottom of the tin. It is essential to stir the product thoroughly before use and to stir regularly during application to maintain even distribution of the particles and guarantee the magnetic effect across the entire surface.

What surfaces can I apply this magnetic paint to?

Magnetic paint can be applied to standard interior surfaces: plaster, plasterboard, wood, panelling. Ensure the surface is clean, dry and properly prepared. For specific details depending on your surface, consult the manufacturer's technical data sheet.
