To maintain your VisiCare™ Dry Erase Boards, follow these simple cleaning and care instructions:
- Use a clean, soft, lint-free or micro-fiber cloth to clean the board. Apply only light pressure for best results. For streak-free cleaning, lightly dampen the cloth with water. We recommend using VisiCare™ Microfiber Erasers, which are disposable and should be changed between patient care or as frequently as your facility suggests for infection control.
- If necessary, you can apply a diluted ammonia-free glass cleaner onto the cloth and then wipe the board's surface. Never spray cleaners directly on the board's surface.
- DO NOT use coarse or abrasive cleaning agents, powdered scouring compounds, ammonia-based sprays, or solvents, as they can damage the board.
If you have concerns about how your cleaning solutions will interact with VisiCare™ products, we recommend testing your cleaning practices on a VisiCare™ materials sample. Please request a sample through your consultant today. Your satisfaction and the longevity of your boards are our top priorities.
To remove permanent ink from your VisiCare™ Dry Erase Board, follow these steps:
- Use a dry erase marker (or a wet erase marker) to trace over the permanent ink marks.
- After tracing over the marks, erase the board as you normally would.
- It may require several attempts of this process to completely remove the permanent ink.
