Sprays vs Wipes: Which Whiteboard Cleaner Do You Need?

If you’ve recently invested in a whiteboard for your office or classroom, then you’ll be keen to make the most of it. Unfortunately, the general wear and tear of a whiteboard is often more obvious in the marks left behind by markers.

Ensuring you have the correct cleaning equipment will go a long way to preserving your whiteboard and keeping it clean. This article is going to look at some of the benefits of different types of cleaning products so you know which to buy.

Whiteboard Sprays

Whiteboard sprays are often the go-to solution for whiteboard cleaning and are excellent for giving your whiteboard a thorough and deep clean.

In many offices, writing can stay on a whiteboard for days, weeks and even months at a time, so removing the marker can be incredibly difficult and often leaves behind a stain that is impossible to shift. Sprays are perfect for removing stains as they provide the most concentrated cleaning solution and can also be used in conjunction with dry wipes for the ultimate clean.

Unlike the wipes, you will also need a cloth to use with the spray which could prove awkward in a high traffic environment such as an office.

Whiteboard Wet Wipes

Wet wipes are a great solution for those who are interested in a whiteboard spray. Saturated with the same cleaning fluid that you would find in a spray, wet wipes are made for convenience and can come in large packs. For example, our whiteboard wet wipes come in a pack of 50 which provides more than enough to keep you going for a while.

Just like the whiteboard spray, the wet wipes are able to keep your whiteboard looking clean and fresh with minimal amount of effort.

You should be aware that although our wet wipe container is designed to lock in moisture, there is a risk that the wipes could dry out over time if they’re not stored correctly.

Whiteboard Dry Wipes

Instead of using wet wipes, dry wipes are a great alternative. These type of wipes are more cost effective – our product comes with an additional 50 wipes for the same price compared to the wet wipes. However, these types of wipes are unlikely to provide the same deep cleanse that you would get from wet wipes or a whiteboard spray.

Easy to tear and use means that dry wipes are actually great for everyday use, and can be used in conjunction with wet wipes or a whiteboard spray, therefore providing the best of both.

Getting a combination kit

As mentioned above, in some scenarios, you may benefit from purchasing more than one type of cleaning product in order to ensure your whiteboard remains clean and professional-looking.

This is easily done with a combination kit where you can not only get more for your money but a complete whiteboard accessories kit with everything you need to manage and maintain your new whiteboard.
