Important Tips for Your White Board Surfaces

Before Use

1. Some boards are shipped with a protective plastic film to prevent scratches. Be sure to remove this film prior to writing on the surface.
2. Spray your board with a white board cleaner and wipe with a soft cloth. Rinse with water and dry with a soft cloth.

User Tips
**We highly recommend Expo® brand dry erase markers (“low odor”markers are best for using around children, but may not erase as easily as regular “high odor” markers).
**NOTE:  Our whiteboard surfaces get better after initial use.

DO

• Erase after every use with a clean dry soft cloth or eraser (eraser should be specifically for white boards)
• Use white board cleaner at least 2 to 3 times a week
• Replace your dry erase markers as needed to avoid “ghosting”  - over time, markers will loose their ability to erase properly

DON’T

• Don't use abrasive cleaners (it will ruin the surface) 
• Don't use abrasive erasers, sponges, or rags
• Don't use a chalkboard eraser
• Don't use a wet eraser
• Don't use permanent marker – Keep them away from your white boards!

Tips to Remove Permanent Marker

1. Using a dry erase marker, write over top of permanent marker. 
   Let dry.  Erase.  Repeat a few times.
2. Try a Pentel Brand HI-Polymer Pencil eraser.
3. With a very small amount of isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol)
   on a soft cloth, clean stained area only.  Rinse with water. 
   Dry with soft cloth.  Repeat a few times.
4. SoySafe™ white board Cleaner & Restorer is also perfect for
   removing permanent marker stains. Copernicus item # AC405.
   
   Note: Under no circumstances should cleaners which contain
   paint remover or thinner be used.
