\"How<\/p>\n

Whiteboards have become a staple addition to any classroom or office<\/h2>\n

However, over time they can become stained from all the writing and erasing. <\/p>\n

This ghosting and staining can take away from the neat and uniform look of a whiteboard surface so read below for solutions on refurbishing your old surface to its former glory with minimum waste:<\/p>\n

Recoat Your Old Surface<\/h3>\n

Our Smart Whiteboard Paint in white<\/a> can be used to refurbish your old surface by simply applying one coat of paint on the discolored board. <\/p>\n

You can continue to use your regular quality whiteboard cleaners and markers<\/a> with this easy-to-apply product. It even comes with a ten-year performance guarantee.<\/p>\n

Additionally, you can upgrade your surface further by making your renewed whiteboard into a multifunctional surface with our Smart Magnetic Whiteboard Paint.<\/p>\n

Cover Your Old Board<\/h3>\n

For a quick and modern result, just install our Smart Self-Adhesive Office Film directly onto the old whiteboard to upcycle your surface.<\/p>\n

Measure and cut the film to size, with sufficient overlap for safety and error. Stick the film directly onto your old whiteboard surface, removing any air bubbles as you go. Trim to fit and that\u2019s it! No need for any specialist tools or professionals for installation. Watch our step by step application guide for more. <\/p>\n
