From daily specials to live entertainment, special events, and other important information, advertising in the foodservice industry relies heavily on the text we write and the images we draw. But with so many options out there, deciding on the perfect writing utensil for the job can be a little tricky.
Markers make it easy to convey messages at your food service establishment. They produce bold, dark print, not achievable by pencils, pens, or even chalk on most surfaces.
What surfaces do dry erase markers work on? Wondering if you can use wet erase markers on a dry erase board? While both types of markers can be used on non-porous surfaces like whiteboards, glass, laminated papers, metal, mirrors, and plastic, each type has its own distinct advantages.
Wet erase markers' semi-permanent ink makes them better for creating long-lasting markings, while dry erase markers are better for quick-changing, temporary markings. Plus, only wet erase markers can be used on black marker boards and resist heat.
Keep your whiteboards looking like new by cleaning your whiteboards properly!

A special type of wet erase markers, liquid chalk markers come in a variety of vibrant colors and are a versatile option for the food service industry.
Rainproof markers are great for use on outdoor advertisements, such as sidewalk signs out front of your establishment, or tabletop signs at your outdoor eatery.
To extend the life of your markers, they should be stored horizontally with the caps on tight when not in use. To revive dried out markers, place the cap on tightly and store with the tips facing down for 24 hours.
