A campus board can take a lot of wear and tear over time. Whether it’s a classroom whiteboard, a bulletin board, or a corkboard in a common area, these surfaces often get marked, scratched, or simply look outdated. But instead of rushing to replace it, why not try repairing it? A little TLC can go a long way in making your board look fresh again.

Start with cleaning the board. Dust and marker stains can make it look worn out, so use a whiteboard cleaner or rubbing alcohol to give it a thorough wipe down. For those stubborn ghost marks that just won’t fade, a magic eraser or a mix of baking soda and water can help scrub them away.

If your board has scratches or minor surface damage, a resurfacing sheet is a quick fix. These peel-and-stick sheets are made to cover up imperfections and give the board a smooth, fresh surface. Simply measure, cut, and apply the sheet, smoothing out any air bubbles.

For damaged corkboards, you can replace the fabric or re-cover it with new cork or fabric. This easy fix will have the board looking brand new and ready to pin up materials or student projects.

With just a little effort and the right tools, repairing your campus board can save you money and time. A simple clean-up or surface fix will keep your board functional and looking great for years to come.
