My internet savvy wife has been searching the internet and compiling the “ultimate” bedroom for our 2.5 yr old son. One thing she found that sounds really neat is a paint that you put on the wall that magnets will stick to. The theory is that you paint this stuff on the wall, then topcoat over it. And then, magnets will stick to it. Personally I think the idea is kinda neat. But online, the stuff is $20 a PINT!!!! Plus 7 or 8 bucks shipping of course. So I check the boxes, they never heard of it (big surprise!!). Well if they don’t have it, I reason a good paint store would. So I call my local Duron and Sherwin Williams. Nuthin. They ain’t got it.
Anybody ever seen this stuff ?? Recommend a source where it doesn’t go for the equivalent of $160 a gallon?? Don’t get me wrong, it’s a specialty product, and I don’t mind paying, but if I’m gonna get hosed on the price, I’d like to find a local supplier instead of benefitting some unknown internet operator. After all, the local paint guy needs a new Mercedes I think.
