Open Question: how do you make a black board black?

It has been drawn all over, but everytime I dust it or wash it with water, it just goes a grey colour. How do I make it black again?

Open Question: How do I ceramic Tile over an old diagonal run floor?

I am trying to redo flooring in my living room. I pulled up the carpet, 2 layers of linoleum, 1 layer of cement board, a layer of what looked like tar paper and another layer of linoleum, and found boards about 8" wide run diagonally across the floor, I can not see the floor joist and have no basement so unsure on there spacing. The floor does have some movement but little. I also heat my house with a wood stove, that the previous owner set directly on the floor and only have about 3/4" to work with so the ash drawer of the stove will still open. I am just wondering what to do that will work best to keep my tile looking great, now and for years to come. I am a stay home mom, doing this alone(agreed with my husband that he would not have to help, after working all day) and really I have plenty of time to work on it. I was told by a friend to thinset the existing floor, cover with durarock, use plenty of durarock screws, let dry, then thinset, and ceramic tile, let dry, then grout... Will this be enough or will I need more. Keep in mind my 3/4" max. And if so how long should the thin set dry between each layer, and does dry time change much considering that I am in North Dakota in the snow melting phase and the humidity is extremely high? Thank you
