Magnetic paint, whiteboard and blackboard paint - for creative & magnetic wall decoration

Magnetic paint is easy to use and versatile

Magnetic paint can be applied to any smooth surface, which allows you to not only use it on walls, but also on furniture and other wooden or plastic objects. If you like you can apply an acrylic paint or other product of your choice on top of the magnetic wall paint.

Tips:

• Prepare the selected surface the same way as you would for a regular wall or water-based paint.
• Stir the magnetic wall paint properly so the iron particles can disperse evenly.
• Let each coat dry for 4 hours before applying the next.
• Before applying a coat of regular wall paint you should wait 6 hours. Before painting over with blackboard or whiteboard paint you should even wait 2 weeks to prevent uneven textures.

Rectangular, round, L-shaped or wavy: You can apply the magnetic paint any way you want. Just tape off a certain area on the wall, paint it with magnetic and then white paint. This allows for individual interior designs and inconspicuously hanging up photos, pictures, postcards, and other decoration. You can expand your design possibilities by purchasing our blackboard or whiteboard paint. With these products, you can also vary your colour palette. Because of the iron powder, the magnetic paint is grey. With transparent, white, green, or black whiteboard or blackboard paint, you can choose the colour you want.

Magnets for magnetic paint

Not every magnet adheres well to magnet paint and common ferrite magnets are too weak. A perfect choice are strong neodymium magnets such as cube magnets, disc magnets or cone magnets as well as magnetic sheets and magnetic tapes. You can find a comprehensive list of suitable magnets in our FAQ Which magnets do you recommend for walls painted with magnetic paint?.

Good to know:If you want the very best outcome, we recommend three to four paint coats because compared to sheet metal, magnetic paint contains less iron per cm². Each additional coat adds more iron powder to the wall and magnets adhere better, however, it will never reach the same adhesive force as sheet metal.

More creative possibilities with whiteboard and magnetic paint

You can also use non-ferromagnetic whiteboard paint to turn a wall into a huge whiteboard. It is also suitable to paint over the grey magnetic paint. Whiteboard paint is especially convenient for the children's room: Children can be incredibly creative and create wonderful artwork on the wipeable wall.
