Man O Man!!! I started a job here and i am half way finished. It was one of those kinda jobs where you start off knowing what you are expected to do and half way through the job they decide to change things and make more work for you. I am beening piad good money for the job i did and they realized that they were at fault for changing there minds. but here is my problem......
I can't find the 4 x 8 sheet of marker board any where. The place i used to buying it (Home Depot) decided to not carry it any more and they can not order it (or will not) which ever! So does any one know where i can get 2 4x8 sheets of erasable marker board (just the board no frame). Thanks

Try Y.M.S in Toronto. 416-242-6860 or you can buy dry erase vinyl from Avery that can be applied to wood, metal or plastic.

Totally a guess, but isn't it nearly the same thing as dibond or alumalite. Try a marker on them to see how they react and clean up. Bronzeo
Go to your local Lowe's, Home Depot etc... and pick up a sheet of white shower stall paneling (Here locally it is Abitibi brand). The stuff works great and you can get it for under $20 usually. I have a board here in my shop that has been used daily for over 4 years and it still looks great.

Steve, we use quite often and our production board in shop is made from also. The product we use is called Ceramalite (brand name) but is for shower stalls. We buy from lumber yards and is sometimes available in 2 grades, one is around $26 & other $40. Hope this helps!

Hi Steve... I also use abitibi, thrifty white, marlite, whatever ya wanna call it. BUT I always wax it with Pledge furniture polish after applying the vinyl grafix. This helps it to be more erase-able, and it really does last for years. I do them for a local bottle-making plant, Glenshaw Glass. They use them to make notes on their production lines. They last 4 years on average, being used 24/7/365. Good luck! Love- JILL ps make sure you use dry-erase markers.
