Magnetic Attraction

posted by: Paintideas 03/11/09
Ingredients
A bare wall
Paint brush
Foam roller
Painter
Step 1
Clean surface and allow to fully dry.
Step 2
Tape off the area you would like to paint.
Step 3
TIP: Stir paint thoroughly before and regularly during application to ensure paint is consistently a smooth, dark gray color.
Step 4
Apply one coat of Rust-Oleum Specialty Magnetic Primer to the wall. Apply a second coat after 30 minutes. For best results, apply three thin coats instead of two heavy coats.
Step 5
After allowing paint to dry for at least 4 hours, apply a top coat with your color choice of latex paint.
Step 6
TIP: Create your magnetic space low enough on the wall that children can enjoy using it. It's perfect for tic tac toe and spelling games.
Comments
Didn't even know Rust-Oleum had magnetic primer. I'm taking notes here for future project ideas :-)

So beautiful and smart. I wish I had thought of it years ago when my son was young.
