  • Gently press the nib against a piece of scrap paper for a few seconds to prime the ink flow.
  • Check if the marker needs refilling or if the nib needs replacement.
• Ink not erasing cleanly:
  • Verify that the surface you are writing on is a genuine dry erase whiteboard. These markers are not intended for permanent surfaces.
  • Use a clean, dedicated dry erase board eraser. Old or dirty erasers can leave residue.
  • For stubborn marks, use a specialized whiteboard cleaner.
