Create signs for garage and household sales.How to use:Self adhesive chalkboard works best on smooth non-textured solid surfaces. The surface must be clean. Use a liquid cleaner like glass cleaner to clean the surface and wait until the entire surface is dry before adhering your chalkboard liner. Metal, glass, ceramic, or porcelain are all great mounting surfaces. If the desired use is on a textured wall, try mounting the covering to a piece of Masonite first and then hang on the wall. If you prefer to mount self-adhesive chalkboard to a textured wall, it will create a rough writing surface and potentially have poor adhesion. You can mount self-adhesive chalkboard liner on any smooth wood surface. To use, cut to size with scissors and then peel and stick. For writing, use regular white or colored chalk. To erase, a damp cloth works best.

Other reviewers have commented that this is nothing but black contact paper. This is true - it IS black contact paper. When you first take it out of the package, you feel it and think that it feels NOTHING like a chalkboard and that there is NO WAY ON EARTH that it is going to take chalk well. Disappointment and resentment may well up inside you. But take heart! This stuff is actually fantastic, and takes chalk like a CHARM.There are a couple of secrets to getting it to work just like a regular chalkboard. The first is quite intuitive: make sure you apply it carefully to a very smooth surface. I don't think a textured wall will work well. Alas, I have quite textured walls in my house, and I wanted to use it as wallpaper for a small section of my daughter's room. Well, I scrapped that idea and applied it to a large piece of masonite board (you know, the stuff that is often used for pegboard, but without the rows of holes). This masonite board (It makes a great, instant chalkboard. It works just like any chalkboard, provided you apply it the way I will describe, and definitely PRE-SEASON it, before you draw or write on it.I gave it four stars instead of five, because I think if they shipped on a cardboard tube, there would be no wrinkles, and it would be much easier to apply perfectly. As it was, the roll was in a box, but with nothing to support it internally, so there were some wrinkles, which created a problem when it came to application.I just applied a 36" X 18" piece to my stainless steel French-door refrigerator's freezer drawer (located on the bottom of the fridge). With the help of my six-year-old daughter, it was not easy to apply, but entirely do-able, especially once we got the squeegee in on the action.I started by thoroughly cleaning the surface to which I was applying the chalkboard paper, so that if I had to re-position it, I wouldn't be ruining the adhesion with dirt that the sticky part picked up. I started with Goof-Off, then wiped it off. Then, I switched to my own mixture of Dr. Bronner's soap and water, followed by dish soap and water, then plain water, followed by a spray bottle with some rubbing alcohol and water. Then, I thoroughly dried it.Because I applied it horizontally, I lined up the short side with the shine on the door, peeled back about an inch from the side, and stuck it down. At first, we tried to use our hands, and fingers, to smooth out bubbles here and there, but we kept having to peel back and start again. Finally, it dawned on me to use the squeegee, and things took off from there.The trick is to just to apply a narrow bit at the beginning. Only peel off a little of the baking at a time, only as much as you need to stick down at that moment. Make sure all those bubbles are smoothed out, then while someone holds the roll, you control tension with one hand, and just use the squeegee, on the non-sticky side, to get the paper to make contact with your surface. Push the squeegee toward the point of separation. If one section tends to get more bubbly than another, start by squeegeeing the difficult section first, and the smooth, easy section will be no problem. Otherwise, work from the middle down, the the middle up, holding the squeegee parallel to where the contact paper and the backing are separating, as you hold tension on the unused part.Take heart, it is easily repositionable, multiple times. If you mess up, just peel up, and redo that area.Once I got about three or four inches down and smooth, I stopped what I was doing, to check to see if my positioning of the roll was level. It was. Using the light reflection/shine as my marker really worked well. If you had a laser level, that would probably work, too. An old fashioned plum bob might work, too, but I think light was quite handy.Once I checked to make sure it was level, I also decided I wanted the bottom section of what I had already put down to be entirely smooth and free of wrinkles or bubbles, so I unstuck that bottom part, and squeegeed it down horizontally, rather than vertically, as I had been going. Once I took care of that, it seemed to arrest the chain reaction of wrinkles and bubbles that had been plaguing the bottom section, and it was fairly quick work from there. Just keep tension with one hand, use only about a centimeter of unpeeled from the backing section at a time, and let the squeegee do the work. I used a Simple Human squeegee, by the way. It didn't catch at all on the chalkboard surface.It helped to have my daughter's assistance at times, to hold tension, keeping the sticky part away from the surface, when I needed her to.When we had it on there, the only thing left to do, is what you have to do to all unused chalkboard before you use it, and that is season it thorougly. Rub the side of a piece of white chalk all over the entire surface of the board. Then, using an eraser, rub in circles, until a gray haze covers the whole surface. You're good to go from there. The kids have been taking turns sitting on a little stool and doing their drawings ever since.I am pleased enough that I am ordering a whole 'nother roll, so I can do the top doors. I plan to have an inventory of what's in there, plus the date we bought or made a thing on one door, and a grocery list and a meal plan on the other door. I am hoping it will help cut down on the kids' propensity to open the door and browse. Plus, I hope to cut down on waste, by preventing lettuce getting shoved to the back and forgotten about until it turns to liquid, or leftovers going bad simply because they were forgotten.It works! I had one of my cupboards painted with chalkboard paint, but it was scratching off in places and looked terrible. I decided to try this out as it seemed like way less effort than sanding down and repainting the cupboard, and it was so much nicer! The back has lines for measuring and cutting which made trimming it to size really easy. It cut nicely with an exacto knife. The first one I put up I had to Peel off and adjust because I accidently hung it crooked, and it stuck back on with no issue after being moved.Side note, I use an old gift card for pressing out the bubbles, and in some spots it seemed to rub away some of the finish. So I'd suggest finding a softer squeegee device for that part. I also accidently ripped a small piece over a corner while pressing it down, but it's out of eye line and I just filled that part (showing white cupboard behind the wrap) in with black sharpie and it's all good.Love love love, with halfway through the year all of a sudden with covid I was now a teacher after barely passing high school. Wow crazy year, but this bad boy right here made schooling at home much easier. So easy to assemble (which is needed with hence the barely passing high school part) and, bam, stick that bad boy onto the wall and you got yourself a little classroom. And now with school being over it's a great little thing for the kiddo to play with. It was easy to move and when you do move it, it wont destroy your wall and leaves the paint where its suppose to be, on the wall. Awesome product!I used this to make a framed chalkboard from an old thrift store painting! It was easy to cut and stick to the board, just start at one corner and peel slowly as you lay it flat. I used a piece of chalk to "prime" it before use, but it still left behind a few marks so I gave it 4 stars for cleaning.I still have lots left on the roll to use for other projects!My wife and I used this to create a chalk board out of an old ruined white bard. It is great!NOTE: be patient when sticking it to something, I was not and I created a bubble fold but it still works awesome.Also, be sure to prep the board to take chalk by curing it with chalk, I believe other reviews explain this in detail.We use Chalkola Chalk Markers & Metallic Colors, also purchased on Amazon. They work great. Only, the metallic colors stay a lot longer on the board, so we do not use them... only the regular ones.Overall, I would recommend this to anyone looking for a DIY chalkboard.I was surprised this was such a good product. We bought this for my kids, who are now learning from home due to the closing of schools from COVID-19. Excellent buy and saves us from using paper. Cutting and applying was easy. Chalk also comes off easily without streaks. Good buy.
