White Boards

[GemmaGurney]

Does anyone know what kind if White boards they are putting in the new churches? Why are my magnets not working? And what kind do work on these boards. They have 4 on them already but sometimes you need more.

Do the magnets not work at all? Or, are they just weak on those boards?

If the board's backing material is non-ferrous (aluminum, etc.), basically no magnet will stick to it. Let's hope that's not what the new board are.

Worst case, sticky-notes or sticky-note paper should work. Blue painter's tape might also work but might possibly leave residue.

If it's a case of only super strong magnets working, be careful, since they might be dangerous to unsuspecting children and adults who play with them (since they can stick to other things and each other very, very, very well—if they're such as neodymium magnets).

They do not work at all. I put my regular magnets on with a single sheet of paper and it didnt stick at all.
