The only way to get them looking authentic is the wooden approach in my opinion. I buy frames from a local joiner, apply the blackboard vinyl to some blk foam and insert within the frame. They look good once varnished or stained.

Lynn………once it’s a nice wooden frame thats all finished it looks pretty good, standing back from 6 or 10ft you wouldn’t know. Plus the advantages with the vinyl for the customer are better than a blkbrd painted ply. They have to re-apply the paint year after year to maintain the look. If you buy the correct cleaner for your pens and use it on the vinyl it will look good for years and it’s maintenance free.
At the end of the day it’s personal choice, i used to think the same as you and painted the boards to get that look. Vinyl is less hassle for me, it goes out the door quicker and looks pretty much the same.
