(hopefully it hasn't been asked before..I didn't make it all the way through the comments)..When you paint on the chalkboard paint, does the surface become magnetized? Like could I put magnets on it?<BR/>Hopefully this wasn't a silly question..just wondering.<BR/>Thanks!Smullin Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03133368709376316718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858086016338707817.post-35954212857992216852008-10-13T11:33:00.000-06:002008-10-13T11:33:00.000-06:00This looks like a project I could actually do.

I'm just wondering if you could replace the canvas with something else and paint that with chalkboard paint.
