I put primer on the wooden board and then painted it with 1 litre magnetic paint.
I put several coats on, so even weaker magnets would stick.
I used a thick brush that applied the paint thick enough and distributed the metal chips evenly.
The completed magnetic picture frame
And this is what the pretty magnetic picture frame looks like when finished. As you can see, I attached all sorts of decorative magnets to it, such as Fridge magnets 'African animals'.Note from the supermagnete team:
The magnetic paint used in this project is dark grey. The magnetic paint by DUPLI-COLOR that we have been selling in our online shop since the end of 2016 is light grey and would look very different in this frame. For a darker hue, you could paint over the magnetic paint with black chalkboard paint. Then you could even write on the surface with chalk.

If you like this project but don’t feel like painting, we recommend our ferromagnetic blackboard films
as an alternative.
These self-adhesive sheets come in various decorative colours and can be mounted in no time at all.
