About Talens Art Creation Blackboard

Blackboard is a matt blackboard paint and suitable for all porous grounds such as stone, wood, plastered walls, etc. The paint produces a strong surface that is resistant to wear. After two days it is water-resistant, allowing it to be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Blackboard is available in 8 colours. The paint, which can be applied with both a brush and roller, flows very easily. This allows a very smooth surface to be created, which is highly suitable for drawing and writing on with chalk.
