Does this board have any blemishes on it?? I need something white, ultra smooth, semi shinny, and blemish free to paint on. Does it fit the bill?

The board does nit come with blemishes. However it does not fit the bill. It bends and does not stay flat on a wall even when properly installed. How? I gave no clue.

Fits the bill to me. To address ssamira though, I used command strips to hold up my board and it seems flat enough to me. Or course I used several on the edges since I didn't want to hammer anything.

The item is exactly as pictured. This thing is awesome. My husband and I bought one for our house and one for his parents. The board has the traditional colors all around, it's not all white. Hope this helps!

It does have a clear coat on it. I really love this deck. Super flexy. I weigh in at 225 lbs and have no problems with this board.

No, the picture is a good representation of the color of my sideboard. It's a rustic brown but just a warning its a top treatment so once you knick the surface it's a light cream wood underneath. I used a furniture marker to touch up blemishes.

Yes. Just make sure nothing runs against the board. It'll leave little marks on your image.

Hi. I have been working with paints all my life. Working forDuPont and Val-Spar. I have used vinyl finishes a few time on my own stuff and works well. I have had no problems with cracks or peeling (due to a flex additive) but for everyday use I feel it will wear through after everyday sliding back and forth as this is a thin material being sprayed and will take a few coats for decent coverage. The articles Ive sprayed in the past were chairs that did not get much use but looks good.But for the price it can't hurt to try. At worst just touch it up from time to time. Hope this helps a little anyway. Thanks. Hi. I have been working with paints all my life. Working forDuPont and Val-Spar. I have used vinyl finishes a few time on my own stuff and works well.

This is 1/4 masonite as I know it. I think some call it hard board. It is shiny and I have never been successful in painting it. It doesn't cover well and if not prepped really good the paint won't sick for long.

this one from my experience!! It is a good all around board. and the only update that I recommend is new bearings. I got bones reds on amazon for like 11 bucks!

Yes. Its a great board for the price. Just make sure to loosen the nuts when it arrives to get a better ride.

I am sorry you are experiencing this issue; mine has a similar defect too by the serrations. I decided not to do anything with it. Any touch up will make it look worse - trust me. If you do a little research, you will see that some have removed the paint completely, and then used some polishing paste - the result is amazing; a high gloss stainless steel look! Capelos, on You-tube has a video reviewing this gun, and at the end shows how it looks without the paint! You can remove the paint from the slide and barrel only, for a two-tone look, or remove it from the frame, as well, for a complete stainless steel look! If you read my full review you will see that I had recommended to the manufacturer to offer it "blued" or, better yet parkerized! I hope this helps. Good luck.

On the colored versions (i.e., non-woodgrain), the backing board is white. I don't own any of the wood-grain versions, but my guess is it's the same color as the grain, based on the picture (if it was white, it'd be clearly noticeable in the provided product picture).

Depends. This is a cure so it leaves a fairly thick glossy coat over whatever you paint. A couple of coats of primer and then paint worked just fine for me but there was a noticeable lip where the whiteboard paint had stopped. It's hard to see but easy to feel and once you've noticed it then you'll see it every time you look. Sanding down the lip resolved the problem just fine. If you don't stop midway across a flat surface then just primer and paint will work as normal, maybe one more coat of primer.

The product's glass is not the issue, the only problem I had with the product was the paint is easly removed. This is a major issue when the time comes to clean the product. I also cannot deny the fun my friends and I had useing this chessboard.

I used some screen paint off of EBAY. Looks fantastic. Best $50 (for hardboard and paint and trim) I've spent on my entertainment setup.MUCH better than the white wall. The black levels are acceptable now. The paint is grey but slightly reflective, so it's still plenty bright.

The finish is clean. Not shiny, but clean. I am using mine unpainted. I am pleased with it. My truck is not a show truck though... it is a work truck.

Yes, although a smooth surface is necessary for best results. I would recommend a white board.
