Can I paint on outdoor board. Will it wash away with rain?

[@pamelaallen6543]

I had never visited before and I would like you to know how much fun it was to watch and listen to you. You, your wife and dog are neighbor's I wish I had.

[@SonniesGardenPA]

I love that chark board paint. Thats amazing that you made your own.

[@calebcapson811]

Wouldn't describe it as a professional, even amateur video, but the chill nature sure does make this enjoyable.

Your dog is adorable!!! Stole the show...

I really like your video! I might do chalk boards for grand kids for Christmas! Great idea.

[@shrinkingwithkerry4519]

Come for the chalkboard paint; stay for the doggie and happy family.

[@bellnorton1691]

That was neat, great job, nice dog.

[@juliacampbell5881]

I wonder if you could use a whisk, perhaps one made of twigs, if it would mix easier? And if you mix the water to the grout making a paste before adding it to the paint, would that help? The end result was great, just some ideas for mixing it next time.

[@debbieserrano13]

Brilliant!

[@gardenfork]

thx Debbie, these are fun to make! Eric.

[@andreabeydler5107]

That's is so cool! I've wanted a chalkboard to write notes on, but cant see using the store paint when I can make my own.

[@ooohlaa13]

instead of grout u can use 4T calcium csrbonate and 1T talc and 2T water for 1C paint 1T = tablespoon. Using an old blender works great if u r making it often.

[@gardenfork]

Good to know Barbara, thx!

[@michelle10261]

Thank you for sharing your vlog from Michelle in Australia. Be safe.

[@gardenfork]

Thx Michelle! We are good. Eric. 😀

[@summermucha5207]

Please show us how it erased. Did it produce a shadow?

[@trinityrobertson7091]

hey great video! did the chalk erase easily?

[@davidbentley3863]

Hi Eric Great 👍 vid.

[@gardenfork]

thx David, are you going to make one?

[@mustafankamil1973]

this is a very useful recipe, thanks ;)

[@gardenfork]

and fun to make, thx! eric.

[@tylerjanewarwick2885]

Can you do other colours?

[@lilybee_]

I add baby powder to latex paint and it works good. It doesnt get too thick.

[@ZE308AC]

Can i use diatamesousee earth or bentonite clay powder instead of unsanded grout?

[@koningbolo4700]

Hi Eric, can this work with turpentine/alkyd based paints (obviously without the added water)? You see I am in the process of painting may van black. The issue I have with the so called army paint is that IMHO the paint is not matt enough...It is more of a satin/semi gloss. Could the non sand grout trick work to matten (is that a word?) the finish up??

[@02271953me]

Perfect chalkboards Eric! Did you use sidewalk chalk for your writing test??? I notice they've changed chalkboard chalk - it seems very hard and doesn't write nearly as well as that chunk you just used.

[@gardenfork]

i have noticed a change in chalk, but i wouldn't be surprised.

[@jillboehm-reyna834]

That’s great, but how does it look if you erase it?

[@gardenfork]

if you use a sponge its fine. we have had these for years now. :)

[@davemeiser521]

Nice vid! how does the board look after erasing the chalk writing?

[@gardenfork]

not bad, it helps to use a bit of water on a towel. its kinda like an old school chalkboard . have you made one? - Eric.

[@davemeiser521]

@@gardenfork Not yet thinking of taking down my cork board and making a recessed one there

[@Interestingness101]

Thanks for the tips and thanks for sharing. There's one big issue though... You didn't throw the ball!!! ⚾️🐕🐕

[@nickchase9150]

im doing this today but Im going to use an alternative to grout hahhaha

[@THOMASGPII]

I seen grount and I seen plaster of pairs.

[@freakier0790]

Does it erase well?

[@gardenfork]

its pretty good, it is like an old style chalkboard. thx!

[@shimmeringlight4036]

Does anyone know if this would work on an outside chalkboard?

[@gardenfork]

if you used outoor latex, probably. depends on the surface you are painting. thx!

[@shimmeringlight4036]

@@gardenfork Thanks that's what I was thinking too. Thanks for sharing your video!

[@lov55e]

maybe it is Chalk what you use with paint....
