I just use chalk you can buy at Target or Walmart. Cleans off with no problem. About once a week I clean it with a damp cloth.

Hi Richard! I say use regular stick chalk. Remember to treat the board first by lightly chalking over the whole board kind of like an etch-sketch.....using chalk lengthwise. This breaks the board surface in. Wipe that off and you're ready to go. Wet your chalk by placing it in water for a short time before you use. Hairspray lightly sprayed over your final demo will preserve it so it doesn't smudge. Hope that helps. Amy K.

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.

liquid chalk will work good. I had regular chalk and it didnt write on it hardly at all, kinda dissapointing.

Looks like the answer is yes...I googled so you might check out the chalkboards link or others there!

My son did a beautiful job on the board with colored chalk, so yes, colored chalk works on this board.

I haven't used the chalk board. Don't really want to, but I can tell you that the board is a good quality board. The desk and chair are also good quality. Well worth the price.

I use the liquid chalk pens...work really well and swipe off easily with no "dust" leftover. Regular, school-board chalk works too.

The railroad chalk is a better quality and works well on any colored background, doesn't breakup like the regular chalk does

No, I don't think it will replace regular chalk. On the slate, it will probably never wipe off completely. The way I see it is the marker is more like concentrated chalk.

I used a chalk marker with this, but I used it with the intention of not erasing. I made signs with it. I would actually recommend the marker over chalk. It gives a brighter, cleaner look.

Unfortunately, I have not used it on a regular chalk board. I used it on a piece of wood that had been painted with chalk board paint. But I liked the way it worked very much. I liked the fact that I could make finer lines than with chunky chalk. Hope this helped.

Certainly, but the "chalk" marker that comes with the board writes much better than chalk, and is easier to use and clean.

This won't work At all....you need a permanent marker for that...try looking for a permanent chalk marker in white

You can use any basic or colored chalk and it will work great! Regular chalk will rub off by touch. A chalk pen is technically liquid chalk and it does takes water and a little rubbing to get it off. I prefer it!

They're too small to use regular chalk. I used a silver metallic pen but can't reuse them. You'll definitely need a fine point pen.

Crayola chalk works great. My 3 year old son finds it easier to hold thick sidewalk chalk. And EXPO white board markers are also very thick and easy to clean. :) Hope that helps!
