IdeaPaint™ Magnetic Primer can be applied over Drywall, Wood, Metal, Most Plastics, Fiberglass, and Formica® to create a magnetized surface.
Just make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free from wax, polish, grease, oils, chalk, dirt, loose paint, and other contaminants. Scuff-sand hard, glossy surfaces for maximum adhesion.
IdeaPaint™ Magnetic Primer is ready to apply from the can, however, metal pigments will settle to bottom. DO NOT USE AN INDUSTRIAL PAINT SHAKER. Hand stir thoroughly for 3-5 minutes immediately prior to application to ensure a smooth, even consistency. The paint is ready when the color is a consistent gray.
Best results are achieved with a 3/8” nap synthetic roller.
