TECH NOTES
If taken care of properly, these slates will last quite some time. Use DRY-ERASE markers on these slates. DO NOT USE PERMANENT MARKERS, such as Sharpies. Do not use china markers, pens, pencils or chalk.
We recommend Avery Marks-A-Lot Dry Erase markers. You can get this at Staples online or your favourite office supply store. We DO NOT recommend Sanford Expo marker - they will stain the board. If you're not sure, just test out the marker on the back of the slate board to see if it is suitable.
