Create A Magnetic Surface With Magnetic Paint

The first magnetic product we’ll be talking about is Magnetic Paint.

With this product you can create a magnetic surface in any size you choose. It has 50% magnetite content, with each tin including the required 3 coats for your size area.

This means your wall will have a medium magnetic strength. You can, of course, increase this if you want by adding additional coats of Magnetic Paint.

Check out our video here that shows exactly how much you can hold up with Magnetic Paint.

This paint is also an extremely cost-effective product meaning that you can create a high-quality magnetic surface on a budget.

Once your magnetic surfaces are prepared, why not topcoat with any paint, digital print or wallpaper of your choice for a great looking surface that also gives you magnetic performance.
