Maintaining Your Whiteboard Wall

Microfiber Cloth

To remove dry erase marker ink from your whiteboard wall, use a microfiber cleaning cloth (wash regularly and replace when no longer soft). Erasers smear the ink around, and microfiber cleaning cloth works best for daily use.

Clean Your Wall

To prevent marker buildup on your whiteboard surfaces, occasionally clean with soy-based cleaner, followed by water dampened cloth. Do not use harsh solvents or cleaners or abrasive pads or steel wool.

Replace Your Markers

Low-Odor Dry Erase Markers are recommended. Replace your Dry Erase Markers every 4-6 month even if they are still working well.

Key Things to Remember to Avoid Ghosting Issues when Using Whiteboard Paint:

Basecoat
Use either Remarkable Base Coat or a preferred satin or eggshell water-based enamel.

Roller
Use the prescribed or "3/8" nap microfiber roller for application.

Thickness
Do not stretch the material too thin. (i.e., avoid trying to cover 50 square feet with a 35 square foot kit)

Tools
Use Low Odor Dry Erase markers to write and a microfiber cloth to erase.

Rolling
Do not overwork or excessively back roll or roll off an area after it has been done.

Re-application
Do not go back to an area and add more after you have already gone across the surface. Doing so will result in an inconsistent sheen and can cause less than favorable results

4 Steps to Using the Right Roller on Whiteboard Paint

Step 1

Whiteboard paint should be applied with a  nap or 3/8" nap microfiber roller.

Step 2

Never use a foam or other synthetic roller.

Step 3

A full size 9" roller should be used, not the little mini rollers.

Step 4

Delint the roller by wrapping masking tape around it, spiraling it from top to bottom, covering the entire roller sleeve. Once all covered in tape, unroll the tape from the roller sleeve, removing any excess lint as you go. This step must be complete before mixing the two parts.

Gives people something to look at 
Imagine if you could have an interactive whiteboard in your room that allows for brainstorming and doodling but on the walls.

Saves notes
You can save the notes of the whiteboard walls ready for next time.

Engages people

Advantages Of Whiteboard Walls Over Other Collaboration Tools

Whiteboards vs. large sheets of paper:
According to Megowan-Romanowicz and others who have observed students using both whiteboards and paper, whiteboards are better at encouraging students to collaboratively work out and share ideas.

Whiteboard Walls vs. chalkboards:
In theory, you could use a chalkboard for any pedagogy that uses a whiteboard. But they are dusty, hard to erase, and hard to see, so unless you happen to have a lot of chalkboards that you can't get rid of or you have a severe reaction to the smell of whiteboard pens, it is not recommended.

Whiteboards vs. tablets or smart boards:
Electronic solutions, ranging from tablets that students can use at their tables to large presentation screens that students and instructors can interact with.  However, it can be too easy for students to get distracted by all the bells and whistles of these technologies and interact with the technology rather than each other.

How Long Does Quality Whiteboard Paint Take To Dry?

Quality = Fast

The great thing about quality whiteboard paint is the fast drying time from when it is applied to your surface, to the time you can write on it.

Quality = 48 Hour Dry Time

Using a high-end brand like ReMARKable whiteboard paint, you can write on your freshly painted surface just 48 hours after the application is complete.

Water-Based Is Best

The industry average dry time is 4-7 days for the low-end whiteboard paints. This fact has made the water-based premium whiteboard paint most desirable to companies concerned with how long their walls will be wet in the workplace.

Slow Drying = Low-End

Remember that slow drying times have absolutely no relation to better quality whiteboard paint. In fact, it's quite the opposite. 

What Causes Ghosting on Whiteboard Walls?

1. Improper application of whiteboard paint.

2. Not using recommended markers

3. Erasing the board with a dirty eraser/cloth

4. Erasing marks when they're still wet
