Patsy gave a great presentation on white boards. Since then I have watched the Univ of Guelph short video on sticky boards. It was made six years ago but still was interesting.
It talks about making them sticky. The big thing I learned was to make an open manila folder sticky and put that on top of the white board. It prolongs the life of the white board. They roll it with melted crisco. I think I'm going to try a skim coat of vaseline.
