The same writing has been on the board for two months and now it won't erase. I tried water with a soft cloth to no avail.
Please help!

Oh, yeah, I live in Mexico and not all home products are readily available here. Windex is a good answer, but will any type of window cleaning product be safe as well?

Alcohol. Like rubbing alcohol.
Works like a charm!

We use Windex at work to clean our job boards. Works great! Just spray directly on the board and wipe off with paper towels or spray the paper towel. We've been doing this for several years to the same boards and there hasn't been any damage to the boards at all.

I have had this problem in the past a whole lot of times! I also work in a daycare and we use whiteboards all the time! The best product I have found to work is Old Dutch. It's an abrasive powder that won't break the protective surface of your board. You can use either a soft cloth or even just a paper towel and you can use it wet or dry. Dry works best. :-D Good luck!!

Try using any of the hand sanitizers (with alcohol in it) - like Purell or Germ-X. Germ-X - I know works very well for cleaning the dry erase boards. Also - Aqua-net hair spray should clean it, but not as well as the hand sanitizer.
Hope this has been helpful - let me know if this works.

This will sound crazy, but toothpaste does the trick. In my office, we have quite a few white boards and they get all dirty. But a scrub with toothpaste and a paper towel cleans them right off.
Makes you wonder about what that stuff does to your teeth...
