blackboard paint

Writeable wall finish

Blackboard paint is a coating that dries to a matte, slightly textured surface suitable for writing on with chalk.

Applied to walls, furniture, or other surfaces, it creates a functional chalkboard anywhere: We painted one wall of the kitchen with blackboard paint for grocery lists.

Also called chalkboard paint.
