Frequently Asked Questions about Chalkboard wall in Sidmouth
How big should a chalkboard wall be?
As big or small as you want - a full wall, half wall, or just a panel. Consider child height - they need to reach it. Smaller panels are easier for first projects.
What's chalkboard paint like to use?
It creates a matt, slightly textured surface that chalk writes on. Needs 3+ coats for a good finish. Can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
Will it actually wipe clean?
Yes - though faint ghosting can remain after heavy use. Regular cleaning with damp cloth keeps it fresh. It's designed for repeated use.
Can you do colours other than black?
Yes - chalkboard paint comes in green (traditional school board), black, and even clear versions that work on any base colour.
