Can it be used for chalk painted furniture?

Yes, that is all I use it for is my chalk painted furniture. I use it on any piece I paint black, or if I want to get an antique look on a creamy color. It also makes red look very deep and rich. I just love this dark wax so easy to work with.

Yes, it's used for chalkboards. I used it on black contact paper. Very colorful!

Not sure. It is a shiney metal surface. Will your chalkboard paint stick to metal?

This would work great for finger paints and you should have no problem using it for that.

Assuming it's indoor furniture, yes, you can just go ahead and use this. I find that it cleans as well as oils. Using some 0000 steel wool or just a clean rag. Let it soak in for awhile then wipe up any excess with a clean rag.

Not really sure, but I'd imagine if you had the right kind of paint, you probably could...seems like you can paint anything these days. Seems like the crafty websites love to use spray paint for a lot of old furniture, but I don't know if you need a primer (this is assuming you're looking to paint the entire unit). Maybe Better Homes and Gardens, or some other DIY site may have some insight on painting particle board furniture. If you're actually only looking to paint designs on the piece, you might consider painting a little spot on the inside of the unit, or some other inconspicuous spot, to test it out first before committing. Good luck!

I have used this product under ordinary acrylic paint and it worked well. I used two thick coats of the magnetic paint. I can't think why it would not work with chalkboard paint.

No. That was my plan, however, it doesn't wipe off the chalkboard paint. It will wipe off glass and other surfaces but not the chalkboard paint.

Hi thanks for your interest and question about our product. We have had customers who have been able to use our chalk markers on painted-on blackboards and they have been able to remove the ink, however just like all chalk marker manufacturers, we do not recommend this as painted surfaces are generally porous (meaning they have tiny absorbent holes in the surface). This means that they may absorb the ink and it will be difficult to remove. I would advise you to test a small area in the corner of the surface to see if it is able to be removed. One other option is to try and seal the area with a surface primer from your hardware store, as we have found that this can often help. Examples of unsuitable (porous) surfaces include plaster, cement, wood, painted surfaces that haven't been adequately sealed, wood etc. Examples of suitable (non-porous surfaces) include glass, mirrors, metal, slate chalkboards, stone, varnished wood, most whiteboards etc. I really hope this helps and please feel free to ask if you have any further queries.

I purchased the 5 Pound package of Calcium Carbonate by Raw Supply, for $10.47. It will make a lot of chalk paint! Plus, I figure I'll use some of it on the garden too, in the compost pile. I won't use it for health care though, since it isn't labeled "pure" (or w/USP symbol on it), so it could contain traces of lead or other toxic metals. Fine for chalk paint though!

Hi there, no I don't think a chalkboard would fit unless it's as thin as cardboard.

Don't know about chalk, but I painted over magnetic paint, and I did not get good results. You can now but buy sheets of dry erase to put on a wall. They are much nicer and far cheaper. The dry erase paint is terrible.

I don't see why not, my question would be why? I use this on unfinished wood furniture, it keeps it from drying out too much and soaks into the wood.

I don't know if you can or not on this chalkboard. I would be afraid to because I wouldn't want to see the chalkboard go to waste. Maybe call or email the actual maker of the chalkboard about this question. I would like to know myself. Word.

Yes you can, however, chalk is larger thus the letters become distorted. I have sharpened my colored chalk into a point but when you write a few letters you must keep sharpening. I just use paper to bring the chalk to a point. It comes with its own chalk writing implements and they work very well but it comes only in white.

These were purchase mainly for painting boards and other painted products. However, they visually worked for all kinds of chalk boards. There is a better constrast with the darker boards but they work well on any chalk board paint products. Good luck and I hope this helped.

It works well on unfinished wood. If your furniture is stained and varnished I don't think I'd use it.
