Personalize any space with a homemade chalkboard sign. Write and erase message, quotes and more.
- Shake your can of Rust-Oleum Chalkboard Spray Paint for 1 minute after mixing ball begins to rattle. Hold the can 10-12” from the surface and apply a light coat of paint in a steady, back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke.
- Apply 2 or more light coats a few minutes apart. Allow the final coat of paint to dry for 24 hours.
- Once the Chalkboard Paint is fully dry, condition the surface by rubbing the side of a piece of chalk over entire area and then erase. This prepares the surface for writing.
- Use chalk to write the message of your choice and display your new chalkboard sign.
