Answer 1

Chalk paint colors on wood really good

Answer 2

I have painted a bench in chalkboard paint for my nephew, as he was beginning to drawing on my kitchen table and chairs when I baby sat him. Honestly, I think it looked fantastic. It was newer wood, that had no splinters or rough-spots and I used a foam roller to make it a smooth finish. Turned out better than the store-bought one his mom bought him earlier that same year. If what you are working with is a little rough, just sand and prime. This is what the folks at Home-Depot told me before I started my project as I was unsure as well.
