Can this be used to seal chalk paint?

I've never used chalk paint; however, if it dries like any other type of paint I'd expect the gel stain to cover. Suggest that you make up a test coupon and paint that as you would your project and try the gel stain to see if it adheres properly.

I can't be sure, as I didn't try, but I believe it would. I can't see why it wouldn't as long as the board were cleaned of chalk dust and dry.

I'm sure it can!!! The seal is very strong and creates a air tight seal even without tape

Yes! This product is awesome. I used it to seal acrylic hatches on a sailboat. The trick I used was to tape with painters tape wherever you don't want the sealant to stick. Uses a generous amount so that it will push out around the seams and then let it sit. It takes a long time to totally cure, up to a week. Then take a razor blade and cut of the excess.

I understand that this product is to preserve a painted surface, not chalk. I have only used it on painted wood and worked well.

I believe so. For these markers your going to need to do multiple layers to get a real saturated affect and once it's done chances are you're only going to be able to remove 90% of the chalk. It seems even soap and water doesn't get it all off. �

I'm not sure but I believe that you can. I know for a fact that you can paint over this with chalkboard paint. The primer is very dark though.

Yes, but I would definitely use chalk paint to paint over it. Therefore no prep at all, I prefer Annie Sloan paint and seal with minwax paste wax.

Shouldn't be a problem, chalkboard is thin an very flexible. Works nicely on fridge

I would seal it first with a water-based primer or bonder. XIM has one in white that would be perfect.

This sealer is wax based and repels water. I assume it will repel the paint, at least to a certain degree, and not allow a good bond. That being said, I've never done it. I recommend trying it on a small area or scrap piece.

It should create an effective seal on most materials. My application was on a ceramic and cast iron sink.

Hi Denise, Thanks for your great question. We would not recommend applying any chalk marker to a chalk painted surface, the reason being that paint is porous by design. This means that the surface has microscopic holes and ink will seep into the holes. We would recommend applying Chalk This Way chalkboard paper to your surface if making a chalkboard as it works brilliantly with our chalk markers. Regards, Paul Davidson Chalk This Way

I have never tried this, so I a not sure. I know the top coat seals it really well. Sorry I could not be of more help.

I used it for a external water repellant. Works Great, don't know if it would seal the brick as you for your application.

I've done a lot of research on this and found the answer to be no. Liquid chalk is not really made for contact paper or chalkboard paint items. Sorry :( If you want a look like liquid chalk, just wet your chalk when you write :)

It won't come off, and the tip is very thick. If you have a large chalk board and have no plans to reuse, should be fine. Just make sure you write with the chalkboard flat. Otherwise it will drip. Practice a few times prior on paper
