For a project of mine, I had planned to use black lights in a large room, then paint the walls with UV paint. However, I've just found out that I cannot paint on the walls. The artwork would be very much like graffiti, not one large mural. The artwork would also be dispersed throughout the room, not all in one corner or on the same wall.
I'm purchasing enough paint to cover about 1000 sq. ft., and need a material I can paint on that will not require much structure to keep up, be it that it's taped to the walls, secured with poster putty, or leaned against the walls. Nailing, screwing, and hanging are not options for securing the material.
My first thought was to buy about 200 black poster boards, 22"x28" from Office Depot, but I don't know how well they would hold the UV (Wildfire) paint. Also, I don't want to have to join all of those together. Would it be better to go with something in the form of 4'x8' sheets from Home Depot? That is, something that doesn't cost more than $350 total. However, I also don't want to have to waste a bunch of time building structures to support these flats, so poster board may be one of the only options.
