After the primer has dried for the time recommended by the manufacturer, you can paint your globe with chalkboard paint according to that manufacturer’s recommendations.
With my particular chalkboard paint, I painted on three coats, letting the paint dry for an hour between each coat. I let the finished globe dry for 24 hours, then rubbed chalk over the entire surface to season it.
So far my girls and I have doodled and drawn on our new chalkboard globe, and used it to learn longitudes and latitudes and the long-ago location of Pangea. In other words–we love it!
