Dry Erase Boards,
Markerboards, & White Boards all refer to surfaces that can be written on with special
markers and wiped clean with a dry cloth, tissue, or eraser. These surfaces are great
around computers and in classrooms because they aren't dusty like chalkboards.
Many companies are now selling
these boards. Unfortunately there are many different levels of quality. A true dry erase
surface should not stain leaving a residue that can not be removed. Some companies sell
what we call "tile board" which is infamous for staining and scratching when used
as a marker board. So if you are investing any money in a dry erase
marker board make sure
the seller guarantees that it will clean up and not become stained and unusable.
If you use regular markers on your
dry erase surface you will probably need a damp cloth to clean the marker off. This is
normal with all dry erase surfaces. If you get something on your board that doesn't want
to clean off don't panic. You may be able to remove it from your board by going over the
mark with your dry erase marker and then an eraser.
