I would like to prepare an interior wall so that I can attach photos magnetically. For this, I want to use small self-adhesive magnetic sheets that I stick on the back of the photos. We have found this very useful on metal door frames, as it allows us to quickly swap photos without having to frame them first. The holding power doesn’t need to be very strong.
The wall should remain white and otherwise unobtrusive. What would you recommend for this? A specific type of paint or a sheet applied under the wallpaper?
Best regards
Hendrik

Similar products are likely available from other suppliers as well. I have no affiliation with the company and only know about this product by chance (also from personal experience: it works).
There are so-called "magnetic plasters" made with metal sands, applied as a finishing coat with a thickness of 3-5mm (0.1-0.2 inches). The base layer or base plaster should have a minimum strength. Very soft plasters, such as pure lime plaster or thermal insulation plasters, are not suitable. The magnetic adhesion is very good, especially with neodymium magnets.
