Yay! You're welcome!

I was thinking the same thing.

Sorry, I missed this question. If you're still interested, I found this resource for you. help.craftycroc.com/article/7-how-to-seal-a-chalkboard

Gah! Hopefully it'll be easily fixed. ❤️

Thank you! This was one of my first videos. You'll be happy to know I got a Lavalier mic! 😁

@@judyclementwall lol. Great! I’ll admit that I didn’t watch any other videos, but I’m sure you probably noticed pretty dramatic difference in quality once you made the switch

@@judyclementwall also, did you ever add a 2nd camera? If so, ignore the rest of this comment ha ha, but if not, you can just get a second phone or even a decent WebCam and record from two (or more) positions. It’s pretty easy to line them up inside a video editor using the audio as a guide, but I think now they even make some plug-ins that will automatically lined them up for you, then you can just decide which angle works best for which section. To be clear, I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with what you’re doing, and I don’t know how much you depend on these videos for income, but that little bit of extra effort can make a pretty big difference in the viewers eyes

@@evergray5063 I appreciate the advice. ❤️

Sometimes, the old chalk marker will still wash off. If not, I've had pretty good luck using a magic eraser on ghost images, especially on non-porous boards. And if all else fails, you can repaint the surface with chalkboard paint. Good luck!

I think the steel & porcelain chalkboards are considered the best (most able to stand up to repeated cleanings). I've never tried a DIY whiteboard, but I know store-bought whiteboards are often made of porcelain (and glass). You might want to look up "white board paint." I've seen it before, but never used it. Good luck!

Hi, Luis. I'm sorry I missed this comment. You've probably already dealt with it. If not, I'd try repainting with chalkboard paint. It's easy to use, just follow the directions on the can. Then do a quick seasoning before you put it to use.

I don’t know of any chalk markers that are non-staining on a porous chalkboard. You might try sealing the board. I’ve never tried it, but if you google it, you can find directions. It looks easy. 🙂 Good luck!

Actually, I'd never even heard of chalk paste before you asked this question! Looks cool, though. :)

Hi! If by varnish you mean sealer, then yes! I've used Krylon sealer on my chalkboards, and it worked well. I used a spray can. If you do that, practice spray on something else first (like a piece of cardboard). It takes a little practice to get the coverage to be even over the entire board. (At least it did for me!) Good luck!

@@judyclementwall where I needed to seal was indoors so I wasn’t able to use a spray. I used a clear “varnish” that I could brush on instead, I will know tomorrow if it works or not! Thank you

@@alyrog Okay, fingers crossed! Let me know how it turns out!

Two is usually enough.

Lola Biggs I've been really happy with my Versachalk porcelain steel chalkboards. They come clean even when my art has been on the board for weeks.

Hmm. This may sound a little crazy... But hear me out... Use black chalk to season your chalkboard? ♥️

@@AnastaAnam28 Sorry. Just now seeing this. Did you try it?

Or just use chalk on that one. I love those antique boards!

I imagine they use regular chalk on classroom boards so that they can more easily/quickly erase. I've never heard of railroad chalk, but in my experience, all chalk makes noise. You just sort of have to embrace the noise... and the dust.
