Chalkboard Paint Questions
I'm co-hosting (with 5 others!) a bridal shower and have been assigned to provide 20+ chalkboards for a game. I hate to spend $5 each for something that won't be used again and so was thinking of using chalkboard paint on some $1 wooden plaques. I've never used chalkboard paint before. How many coats are required for decent coverage? Are sponge brushes better to use with it than regular brushes? What's the drying time? Thanks!

Re: Chalkboard Paint Questions
A few thin coats with a foam brush should be just fine. I did a pretty big wall in an afternoon.
and just use as many coats as needed
