## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you put rust-oleum dry erase paint over top of this?**
A: I did, magnets would not attract to the wall. Had to use twice as much of the dry erase paint as it called for.

**Q: Does it come in white??**
A: No it’s a primer

**Q: Some have mentioned the rough texture, or "goopiness", clumps, and/or drips. Can this be sanded to smooth between the many coats, and not affect it?**
A: It does have a texture. I would not say it was rough. I did not have any goopiness, clumps and drips. I am not sure if you can sand it or not.

**Q: How long should I wait for the paint to dry(4 coats), so I can paint it over with the chalkboard paint?**
A: One layer could be about 30-45 minutes. It won’t do 4 layers on a large surface. You’ll need more

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by C***S on 21 June 2013*

I tried this product despite what I felt mostly negative reviews. The positive reviews basically have all had the same response. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. 1. On the can it states 3 thin c,,oats are better than 2 thick coats. It also states to mix for at least 10 minutes. It should be a dark gray as oppoee to the black. That tells me it is similar to an epoxy base but the "metal" must be warmed up. Lastly it states 1 can can cover 16 sq ft for three coats. a.) Now a quart of paint should cover 100 sq ft. This covers about 48 sq ft if you lay the paint on as the manufacturer states. So if you are painting 100-120 sq ft in a single can you need to put on at least three cans before it is effective. I placed 5 coats on thus far and a coverage area of 260 sq ft. Based on the logic 1 can covers 3 coats of 16 sq ft or 48 sq ft total it should take me 16.25 cans. I have current put on about 11.5 with two coats to go. Wait at least 12-18 hours before trying the magnets. Currently the magnets hold great. I am putting on two more coats based on what the manufacture states. It is not easy and not cheap. If you don't have the patience don't mess with it. #1 It takes about a hour to cover 100sq ft with a 6 inch foam roller. #2 I stirred the paint with a paint whisk and drill for those ten minutes and poured small amounts at a time into the tray. Each time I went back for more paint I stirred for 5 minutes. #3 IF it does not work you probably are not mixing it enough or don't have enough paint on. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. Oh yeah if you are hanging up magnets on walls that are not straight it won't work. My walls are plaster and when placing letter magnets on I see curves on the plaster. MAGNETD won't stick to this but that is not then products fault, it needs to be able to have surface contact to hold. #4 It is paint. I have read the reviews it smells, it is hard to wash off. REALLY??? It is paint. If it had no smell or does not stick to your skin I would think something is wrong. Open windows and grab GOJO orange with wet hands and work the paint out. A shower afterwards will get the rest out.
