[quote guitarist][quote BigGuynRusty][quote guitarist]Remember to mud the wall smooth first (remember, drywall is textured, not an easy surface to write on) or sand the texture off before applying the chalkboard paint. Mudding is recommended, for a smooth surface.
Drywall is textured??
It is smoother than a baby's butt!

You know what I mean. During installation, drywall is mounted, then texturing is applied before primer and paint is introduced. Homeowners rarely leave their walls completely smooth. Anyone here have baby butt smooth walls? And do you have a baby on hand, to compare it to, for accuracy? lol. Check your walls, you'll see the bumpy surface. Not ideal for chalk writing. Sorry, never seen that texture in California/New Mexico/Arizona.
Also, the Chalkboard Paint provides its own texture/toothiness so the chalk grips.
