• Dry Wipe Board

    Posted by Martin C on 10 March 2003 at 16:02

    I have some basic Sandwich Bar Menu Boards to quote for. List of fillings which will remain the same and the prices to change on a fairly regular basis. I’m thinking of Vinyl onto a Dry Wipe Board with prices in wipeable marker pen and need supplier of Boards that are either unframed or in keeping with a Cafe not an office.

    Anyone know a supplier of have other ideas as to how to do this job?

    I made my own up the last time I did one 3ft x 4ft was the size.
    I used 5mm foamex and applied drymarker vinyl to it myself. Brian

    I’ve tried putting Vinyl onto a board but this never cleans as well and leaves a feint pen mark everytine it’s used. Are you saying you can buy Dry Wipe Vinyl? If so can you point me in the right direction?

    Thanks

    Can you get your hands on SEAL Brand products in the UK? If so, you should be able to obtain a pressure-sensitive overlaminate called SEAL WRITE.

    Hi All,
    Avery makes a true dry erase vinyl. A0850-S. It’s for indoor use only though.

    Create your design and apply it in reverse onto clear acrylic then back up with chosen background colour then use drywipe pens ..sorted

    I’ve used Forrex top before to make a dry wipe board.

    I’ve also applied 751 series Oracal vinyl onto a metal background to create a dry wipe area on a sign board used in conjunction with magnetic add ons.

    As long as the surface is white and glossy – it seems to work ok.

    On a similar subject :- Black banner vinyl I have found works well as a blackboard – stick this onto any suitable surface (e.g “A” board) to create an area that the customer can write on with chalk.
