What is whiteboard conditioning and does my board need it?

Whiteboard conditioning is a process of applying a thin, even coat of a conditioning product (or even a fresh dry-erase marker coat, wiped off before full drying) to the whiteboard surface to improve erase quality. Over time, dry-erase boards can develop a subtle buildup of marker residue and cleaner residue that makes erasing less clean. A conditioning spray applied and wiped off replenishes the surface coating and restores erase quality. Signs your board needs conditioning: markers erase but leave a faint shadow, erasing requires more effort than when the board was new. Conditioning is most needed on melamine boards; porcelain and glass boards need it less frequently. A quarterly conditioning cycle is a reasonable starting point for actively used boards.
