How to Turn a Chalkboard into a Dry-Erase Board Old school chalkboards produce loads of messy allergy-inducing dust and are difficult to erase and maintain easily. Besides, text and drawings done on chalkboards are often hard to see clearly, especially if the boards haven’t been cleaned recently and old chalk dust has been allowed to collect on the surface. So, if your school or office still has a collection of old-fashioned chalkboards in place, it may be high time to upgrade to more modern, hygienic, and easy-to-use writing surfaces such as dry-erase coated walls. Chalkboards are Being Phased out around the World For the past several decades, chalkboards have experienced a steady and rapid decline in worldwide popularity due to the rise of dry-erase and dry-erase coated walls. Nowadays, few people in business, education, medicine, or other fields choose to use traditional chalkboards because they’re messy to use, spread chalk dust around a room when written on, and require continuous...

Introduction The manufacturer’s instructions that come with most standard types of paint, such as interior and exterior latex house paint, state that it’s necessary to apply at least two coats of their products to a substrate to obtain the optimal results; namely, a completely opaque, uniformly colored, durable, and cleanable surface. Similarly, many dry-erase coating companies advise applying two layers of their products to get the best effect; that is, a long-lasting surface that is easily written on with dry-erase markers and readily erased with standard dry-erase erasers or cloths. However, with ReMARKable dry erase paint, only one coat is required to obtain a highly resilient, impermeable, and easily written on and erased dry-erase surface that will last for ten or more years of regular use before needing to be replaced. ONE COAT OF STANDARD PAINT IS INSUFFICIENT FOR ADEQUATE COVERAGE In contrast, depending on the hue and condition of the surface to be painted, one coat of any sta...

Once the recommended single layer of top-quality whiteboard coating has been installed, it’s important that you remember the following key points: (1)  possible application of a second layer of the coating (for special situations or future recoating) (2)  proper maintenance of the whiteboard-coated surface after it cures (3)  health and safety factors related to your finished whiteboard surface (4)  ten-year warranty that comes with each container of coating By bearing this information in mind, you can ensure yourself a fruitful, trouble-free, and long-lasting relationship with your whiteboard-coated surface. WHITEBOARD WALL RECOATING To achieve the best results, we recommend applying just a single layer of premium whiteboard coating after your surface is properly prepared. However, if you feel that a second coat is needed, wait until the first coat is completely dry to the touch (18-24 hours). If the second coat must happen after 24 hours, wait a full 48 hours, then lightly sand the a...

MARCH: THE MONTH OF CHANGE AND IRISH LUCK According to the western calendar, the first day of spring falls on the 20th of March, a month that usually feels quite chilly, so during March, we begin living in Springtime while feeling that winter has not yet ended. Many who write about the month examine this two-sided quality by describing variable aspects of nature like cold weather changing to warm then back to cold, flowers starting to bud then being covered with snow, and gray skies turning blue then back to gray in a single day. If only Mother Nature would arrange for more regular spring-like conditions throughout March, we’d all be happier. But, as many commentators note, the month’s weather is unpredictable, and hopes of spring are often dashed by a sudden return to winter. However, despite its unpredictability, March can be seen as one of the cheeriest months of the year. Flowers and trees are budding, spring is on the way, and the major holiday, St. Patrick’s Day on March 17, offe...

FEBRUARY: A TIME FOR LOVE AND WINTRY WEATHER February may be the year’s shortest month, but Valentine’s Day and Presidents’ Day guarantee that it isn’t overlooked on the way to spring. The word February is thought to come from the Latin name Februalia for the ancient Roman Festival of Purification. The root “februo” means “I purify by sacrifice.” Considering the challenging weather that occurs in many areas during February, it’s easy to see the month as a time of purification when frigid temperatures and dark skies test people’s spirit and determination. The Snow Moon is the name for the Full Moon in February, relating to the month’s often snowy weather. Some Native American tribes named it the Hunger Moon due to the scarce food sources available during the month, while another name is Storm Moon due to February’s blustery weather. Among the ancient Anglo-Saxons of Britain, February was known as “Sprout-kale” as it was the time of year when kale and cabbage first sprouted from the grou...

January: The Month for Fresh Starts January, a chilly month in which to stay warm until Valentine’s Day, features the latest sunrise of the year as well as holidays like New Year’s Day and Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Traditionally, it’s viewed as a time for fresh starts, for making resolutions to improve our quality of life and personal behavior, and for taking stock of ourselves, which is a good practice at any time of year. Some people love January because they value the quiet interlude it offers after the holidays. Others dislike the effort needed to start over, whether it means returning to work or school or simply beginning a new calendar year. However, the month has many other features that have been pondered and commented on through the decades, such as its leading place in the calendar and its reputation as a time for making resolutions. The following is a collection of quotes related to the month of January that are perfect for writing on your whiteboard painted wal...
