Smarter Surfaces Launches Smart Magnetic Plaster. Competition time!

Oh and thanks for the magnets they are very strong, first time I've used the neodium magnets, just tried them on a magnetic wall and you can feel it pulling before it touches the wall.
 
Is magnetic plaster magnetic itself or just metal? I mean if I put a paperclip or can opener on it would it stick? Or would I have to use magnets to stick things to it?
 
I've informed my local charity that I won't be able to provide a magnetic wall for them after all.:nocausagracia:
Saw your article in the builders magazine flynny, your taller than I thought! :)
 
Presumably pva as I would normally is ok here @Barbara


The one draw back and slight criticism before I use it is the 2nd coat after 6 hours, but flynny may for a first time put me right ;) and say the other is a similar process ?

I think just metal mate, needs magnets to work
My old man did a few hospitals back in the day and there was a plaster that had lead or that in it to do the X-Ray rooms so a variation on that maybe?

Been there done that in my apprentice days. X ray room at Preston hospital and the bags were diddy but heavy as f**k. All on EML too ffs we all had to wear doctors gowns etc was hilarious as a lady collared one old boy spread asking if her dad was going to be ok lol she thought he was a quack :risas2:

the finish has magnetite in it, which is pretty much magnetised iron filings with a rust inhibitor in it....i looked up the patent info a while ago and was interesting reading....you can buy magnetite on ebay so pretty sure a homebrew is possible with a bit patience

Got mine today :) there is no primer which do you suggest? Just a bit of a heads up if you deliver them all with the tape wrapped round them it rips the instructions off :( good job a could stick them back ;)

Cheers I will feed that back. In most cases you don't need a primer, we just include that in instructions to be on the safe side.
Here is a video but I am sure you don't need it :)

It's called magnetically receptive as far as I am aware so it attracts magnets but does not mess up with wifi signals or pacemakers (we got few questions about this one actually!)

Just send yourself Barbara then we can go out for a bite to eat :D
 
Got mine thanks Barbara thanks! Not sure whether to do a wall in my own place or try convince a customer to give it a go but either way will report back with the verdict!:sisi:
 
Yeh what's happenin boys? It took me just over an hour to do a wall then half an hour the following evening, no primer needed if the wall is sound and im assuming yours are ;) go on spoil your kids or maybe your nephews or nieces?
