Sharing our customers top 10 whiteboard tips
To really get the most out of your board you need to once in a while give it a bit of TLC. There are many cleaners on the market, most of which would be absolutely fine for use on writing which has only been on the board a few days or so. If writing has been left on the board for a number of weeks (say on a school board over the summer holidays), you may need something a little stronger to shift this dried out ink. In this case you can use a whiteboard conditioner which will give the board a deep clean and help to recondition the surface (it will even help remove permanent marker damage!) You just need to remember that when a board has conditioner treatment you can't use for 24 hours, and must not be used on boards with rulings or grids.
