Click the item number in the price chart for a complete listing of kit contents.
How do I hang my new board?
Your BoldLyne® framed Magnatag® board comes with two hanging options: Patented Safety Hooks and FrameKlamp™ SlideChannel™ wall hangers. You can view a video of the two options or download the instructions for either by clicking these links: Safety Hook Installation or FrameKlamp Installation. Fastener hardware is not included. Please make sure the fasteners you use are appropriate for your wall.
What kind of pens should I use on my board?
For best results use the Magnatag® PandaBoard® dry-erase markers provided with your board.
How do I clean my board?
For best results use the Magnatag® PandaBoard® Brand Cleaner and Conditioner with the large lint-free board wipes provided with your board. Also see Care & Cleaning section below.
What do I do if someone uses a permanent marker on my whiteboard?
Some permanent marker ink can be removed by tracing over the permanent ink with a dry-erase pen. In addition, the Magnatag board cleaner and conditioner will also remove some permanent marker inks. Call one of our customer representatives at 800-624-4154 for other suggestions. Don’t use any aggressive cleaners on the board.
How rugged are Magnatag® boards?
Our MagnaLux® magnetic dry-erase writing surface has permanently heat-fused printed hand-smooth lines, lettering and graphics and is built for a lifetime of intensive daily use, staying clean and like new. Large hospital emergency rooms with over 50,000 patients a year continually write, erase and use magnets on our Magnatag® boards (that’s over 150 writes and erases a day) to post patient status and critical medical information. Some of our competitor’s boards are not designed, nor recommended for everyday use (they even tell you that in the fine print footnotes on their web sites) and will not remain fully functional or maintain their appearance for years like Magnatag® boards do. We do a sizable business replacing worn-out boards made by other companies. For construction details of our boards, click MagnaLux®.
What type of markers or pens can I use to write on magnets?
Our standard magnets have a glossy film surface. You can use both damp-erase and dry-erase markers on them. Use damp-erase markers for semi-permanent information. This ink will require a damp cloth to erase. Use dry-erase markers for temporary or frequently changed information. Dry-erase marker ink comes off with a standard whiteboard eraser or a dry cloth.
Do you offer magnets with a matte finish?
Yes. There is a link to matte finish magnets on most magnet web pages or contact us at 800 624 4154 to order. Use DAMP-ERASE PENS ONLY on Matte finish magnets. Dry-erase pens will permanently stain them.
How do I get an MSDS for your Magnatag PandaBoard® Brand Cleaner and Conditioner?
An MSDS sheet is included in the package with each bottle of the cleaner. You can also download it here or from the board cleaner web page.
How do I know what comes in the board kit?

From here you can order additional quantities of specified kit items, if needed, by clicking on the links to those items in the list.

What else will I need for my new board?

Will your board fit on my wall?
Before ordering, carefully measure your wall space. Some large boards, 4' x 8' or larger, may not fit in some elevators or go around sharp corners or up tight staircases. Please measure before ordering.
Do you make custom printed whiteboards?
Yes, our unique heat-fused printing process permanently prints your design onto the MagnaLux® porcelain-like steel whiteboard surface, designed for a lifetime of intensive daily use, staying clean and like new. Please click on the following link for more information: Custom Printed Whiteboards.

Care & Cleaning: MagnaLux® Whiteboard Surface

Initial cleaning after installation
After wall-mounting your whiteboard, give it an initial cleaning using Magnatag® Whiteboard Cleaner & Conditioner and lint-free board wipes to remove any dust or debris that may have collected during shipping.
Using Magnatag® Whiteboard Cleaner & Conditioner
  1. Erase the whiteboard.
  2. Spray whiteboard cleaner over the whiteboard surface ensuring even coverage.
  3. Wait 5-10 seconds, then wipe the board in a regular pattern using a clean, dry, lint-free board wipe. Allow any excess moisture to air dry.
  4. Repeat if necessary until all ink marks and residue are removed.
How often should I clean my whiteboard?
The frequency of cleaning depends on usage and environmental factors.
    Here are some guidelines:
  • with average use, cleaning the board once per week should be sufficient
  • clean after events with heavy usage
  • clean when it begins to stain or build up residue
  • clean when it goes unused for extended periods (greater than one week)
How can I reduce board staining?
  • Follow all Care & Cleaning guidelines.
  • Do not use permanent markers or low quality dry-erase markers on the whiteboard. Name brand markers work best.
  • Only use whiteboard cleaner & conditioner and soft, clean cloths or wipes to clean the board.
  • DO NOT USE standard kitchen & bath cleaners, industrial cleaners or solvents or isopropyl alcohol to clean your board as these could permanently damage the dry-erase surface.
Why does ink sometimes smudge when I erase?
Wait at least 10 seconds before erasing dry-erase pen ink. Dry-erase pens contain a solvent, which quickens ink-drying time (about 5-10 seconds). Erasing before the solvent evaporates can cause smudging and/or staining of the board.
What pens and cleaner are best for my whiteboard?
Magnatag® brand whiteboard pens and board cleaner are designed for use on our MagnaLux® whiteboard surface. Other brand name, commercially available dry-erase markers also work well. Lesser quality, discount brands tend to stain more.
Are Magnatag® whiteboards weatherproof?
No. Magnatag® whiteboards are designed for indoor use only. They should not be exposed to weather elements such as heat, cold, moisture, rain, ice or high humidity. These conditions can cause warping or other problems. Keep your Magnatag® whiteboard in climate-controlled areas for years of trouble-free use.
