• Interior use only
• Top coat with any latex paint or even chalkboard paint

Application:

Apply when temperature is between 50-90°F (10-32°C) and humidity is below 85% to ensure proper drying. Before beginning the project, tape around the area you wish to paint. Wear gloves to prevent skin contact. Mix thoroughly to ensure any settled pigment is re-dispersed. Thinning is not required. Stir thoroughly regularly during application. Use a foam roller designed to give a smooth finish. Apply the primer with an up and down motion and work the area to give the smoothest finish. A smooth uniform surface will provide for stronger magnetic attraction. Apply entire quart to 16 square foot area. 

Dry & Recoat Times:

Based on 70ºF (21ºC) and 50% relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. Dries to the touch in 30 minutes, and will dry to handle in 1 hour. It can be recoated with itself in 30 minutes. Apply any latex topcoat after 4 hours. Three coats are recommended. Application of more than two heavy coats of topcoat will reduce the effectiveness of magnets. Wait 48 hours to ensure the surface is completely dry and ready for use. One quart of Specialty Magnetic Primer will cover 16 square feet with 3 coats.
