Where to use chalkboard paint

  • Menu boards — Seen often in cafés, our chalkboard paint can be used to create menu boards to display dishes and drinks available on that particular day. When the menu changes or a product is unavailable, you can make alterations easily with an eraser and chalk.
  • Children’s playroom— Instead of using paper, use chalkboard paint to create reusable surfaces for your child to draw on. You can also use these surfaces to teach your little ones how to read and write.
  • Accent wall— Having a wall in your home painted with chalkboard paint creates a visually appealing accent wall and allows you to draw non-permanent designs or list down important daily reminders.
  • Table tennis— Whether you’re creating a DIY ping pong table or revamping an existing table tennis top, Viponds Chalkboard paint is an easy fix. 
  • Retail displays — Enhance your boutique or storefront with customisable signage. Blackboard paint is perfect for creating dynamic pricing boards, point-of-sale messages and engaging window displays that capture customer attention.
  • Home organisation — Bring order to your space by painting the fronts of storage boxes, glass jars and shelving units. Chalkboard paint allows you to label your items clearly and update them easily as your storage needs change over time.
  • Event signage — Create beautiful and personalised welcome signs, seating charts or directional boards for weddings and corporate events. A quick coat of blackboard paint on a sturdy backing provides an elegant surface for decorative lettering.

How to apply chalkboard paint

On a clean and primed surface, thoroughly stir the paint and apply the paint evenly with a spray, brush or roller. For the best results, apply two thin, even coats and allow at least 24 hours before using. Once dry, we recommend using soft chalk rather than hard waxy chalk. 

Black vs custom colour chalkboard paint

When deciding on the right finish for your project, it helps to consider the overall aesthetic and purpose of the space. To ensure your chosen colour adheres perfectly, we recommend preparing your surface with a high-quality multi-purpose primer and undercoat

Classic black

This is the go-to choice for a traditional look. It offers maximum contrast for white or coloured chalk, ensuring your messages and artwork stand out clearly on classic blackboard paint without compromising on that nostalgic feel.

Custom colours

If you want something truly unique, choosing a custom shade of chalkboard paint provides incredible design flexibility. Tinting your paint to a specific hue allows you to seamlessly match your corporate branding or blend the interactive surface beautifully with your overall interior design.  

How to clean and maintain a chalkboard surface

Here is the best way to keep your interactive walls and boards in top condition:

  • Every day erasing: For daily updates and quick changes, a standard felt eraser or a soft, dry cloth is all you need to wipe away chalk dust.
  • Regular cleaning: To remove that cloudy chalk residue and restore the crisp finish of your chalkboard paint, simply wipe the area down with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Deep cleaning: If you encounter stubborn marks or oily fingerprints, mix a little mild dish soap with warm water. Wash the surface gently with a sponge or cloth, wipe it clean and always allow it to dry completely before you start drawing again.
