can you use acrylic paint on chalkboards?

Question

instead of chalkboard paint?

what exactly is the difference between the two?

Answer 1

LOL. Yes you can. But the acrylic paint will remain near water proof and chalkboard paint will wash away....unless you are talking about paint to *make* chalkboards.



Using chalk on a chalkboard will let itself remove with a damp cloth. It is no paint at all really. It has no medium in it, just the chalk and some coloring.

Answer 2

Acrylic Chalkboard Paint
