Abstract
A magnetic paint composition comprising a carrier, particulate magnetically permeable material, a binder, and a thickening agent having thixotropic and viscosity characteristics such that the paint composition has high viscosity when stationary, and low viscosity when shear forces to the paint composition, as it is being applied to a wall surface. When the paint is dried, magnetic objects can be mounted to the wall surface and held in place by the interaction by the magnetically permeable material.
