Alliance P3 White Board Maintenance and Cleaning 

Daily Care and Maintenance

The same procedure is used to clean both chalkboards and markerboards. 

• For the initial cleaning, wipe your board with a clean cloth moistened by a liquid cleanser.

• Rinse with clear water.  This step is simple but very important.

• Wipe dry with a clean cloth.

• If your board is used daily, the cleaning should be performed at least 2 to 3 times a week.  More thorough cleaning may be required if writing is left on the board for more than 2 days.

• Expo Liquid White Board Cleaner by Sanford does a fine job.

Removing Crayon and Tape

The same procedure is used to remove both crayon and tape.

• Dampen a clean, dry cloth with water.

• Sprinkle a small amount of powdered cleanser, such as Bar Keeper's Friend, onto the cloth.  Use less cleanser for chalkboard surfaces.  We recommend using Bar Keeper's Friend, but if you are unable to locate this product please call our Dealer Direct Center at (918) 759-2301.

• Begin cleaning a small, manageable area using a back and forth horizontal motion.  Use normal pressure as if you were cleaning a window.

• Wipe off all residue with a dry cloth.

• Rinse well with clear water.  Please note that the rinsing and drying steps are very important.

• Wipe dry with a clean cloth.

• Follow the same procedure for the remainder of the board.

  Removing Permanent Marker

• Moisten a clean, dry cloth with isopropyl alcohol.  Use less alcohol for chalkboards.

• Wipe the board in a circular motion to loosen marker residue.

• Rinse with clear water.

• Dry the board with a clean cloth.

• Repeat these steps as often as necessary to remove all residue.

• ALSO - write over permanent marker with an Expo or equal dry erase marker and erase immediately- repeat s few times

 Surface Scratch Test

You may perform this simple scratch test to see if your board is made of Alliance Ceramicsteel:

• Using a sharp object such as a key, scratch a small, hidden area of your board.

• If your board did not scratch, congratulations, you have an Alliance product. A painted surface board is easily damaged, but an Alliance Ceramicsteel board resists scratching.   If a scratch does appear you may want to contact your local ceramic-steel board dealer.

Alliance Ceramicsteel boards are warranted to last a lifetime…
