WE GOT SOME WHITEBOARD PAINT

I went to Lowes and although I didn't find idea paint I did find Rustoleum Dry Erase Paint. ($31 for a 7X7 area). Then we picked up our paint tools from Dollarama.



We brought them home and got started. First we had to sand down the table and wall. We only had enough for one wall but we will get more later. After sanding we wiped down with a dry lint free cloth.



Next we mixed can A with can B and rolled on the paint with a foam roller. After we let dry for one hour but only one cuz the paint has to be used within 2 hours of being activated.


After the one hour we rolled on coat #2 and then kept Indy from it.



It has to cure for two days so we won't know until Thursday how it turned out. The wall feels glossy like a whiteboard though. I suspect our table may need an additional coat when we do the other wall.

We are excited to see how it turns out! The wall area we did is 5'6" (H) X 6'1" (L). So it will be so much bigger then our old white board. I also think having the table done will be a great asset and fun too.
