Q. Hi, can I apply blackboard paint over the top of this paint or would it effect the magnets ability to stay on the board. Thanks
A. Thanks for your enquiry Neal. There shouldn't be any problems with this. If you apply several small areas to build up the metallic paint, once dried the blackboard paint can be applied.
Q. Hi, we would like to paint this on plasterboard which sits infront of cooper water pipes and electric cables.. is that OK?! or could it cause issues with any of the pipe work that's boxed in behind the plasterboard? Thanks
A. Thanks for your enquiry. No the paint will not affect the cables or pipes but the manufacturer has recommended that any bare plaster should be cured and hard. Textured, soft, porous or powdery plaster should first be treated with a solution of 1 pint household vinegar to 1 gallon of water. Repeat until surface is hard then rinse and allow to dry. Don't forget to prime it with high quality plaster primer.
