1.1. It is all about the surface you choose for your whiteboard. The vast majority of whiteboards are magnetic, especially if we are talking about dry wipe boards with a lacquered steel or a ceramic surface. Melamine whiteboards, on the other hand, do not have magnetic properties. So, make sure you check all the product specifications before buying your dry wipe board.
2.1. No, they are not. Ceramic and glass are the best surfaces when it comes to writing quality. The magnetic intensity of the board is often related to the thickness of the surface, and has usually ceramic more magnetic strength than lacquered steel. However, all depends on the magnets you choose to use with it. For high magnetic quality, you should choose extra-strong magnets.
3.1. The magnetic quality of a writing board is solely related to its surface. The frame’s material only concerns each user’s aesthetic preferences.
4.1. Melamine whiteboards are among the economic solutions. This is nothing more than a durable plastic added to a paper base. That is why this surface may need to be replaced sooner when compared with other types of surface. However, this is an excellent choice for someone who is looking for a whiteboard for light usage.
5.1. Both lacquered steel and ceramic are magnetic surfaces. Although lacquered steel is a cost-effective solution and easy to clean, this surface is recommended for light to medium use in the office. Ceramic is a non-porous and a high-quality surface. It does not scratch or stain, which means it is easier to get perfectly clean. This surface is ideal for the education sector and everyday office use.
6.1. We recommend always you to wipe the board surface before using our boards for the first time. You can use our cleaning spray across the surface of the board and wipe it lightly with our erasers or cleaning tissues. Before you start writing on the board, make sure the surface is completely dry.
7.1. Every whiteboard comes with cleaning instructions to maintain the best performance of your board.
