Jessica Palmer 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) Sorry for bumping...just my two cents... I'm afraid magnetic paint is no good at all, it hardly has any strength to it whatsoever. Waste of time. Here's what I would do. I would use blackboard paint for the wall (you know it doesn't have to be black, you can get it in many colours now - although black can be really cool). Then I would measure the map you want to hang and get a magnetic steel sheet cut to size. Something like this: www.diy.com/nav/build/building-materials/materials/metal_sheet_material/-specificproducttype-steel_panel/Steel-Panel-Steel-Coloured-L-500mm-x-W-250mm-9284136?skuId=9293836 or this https://besttoolexpert.com/chalkboard-paint/ Failing this, I would get magnetic steel tiles from somewhere like B&Q (as above) and then trim the map to size. I would mount the steel sheet/s on to the wall and then I would very carefully stick the map on to the steel sheet/s with good quality pva glue. When fully dry and free from wrinkles, I would do several coats of PVA glue on to the surface of the map. This will make it durable. Take a magnet with you when you go to buy the steel sheet just to be absolutely sure you're buying the right thing. There are a lot of cool YouTube videos on this subject, here’s one of them. Good luck Edited October 18, 2018 by Jessica Palmer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
