To clean a Crayola Ultimate Light Board safely and effectively, use a soft damp cloth or paper towel, then dry thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth.

Basic cleaning steps

  • Turn the power off and remove any batteries if you will be doing a more thorough wipe-down.
  • Use a soft, non-abrasive damp cloth or damp paper towel to wipe the drawing surface; plain water is usually enough for regular marker residue.
  • Immediately dry the surface with a clean, dry, soft cloth or paper towel so no streaks or water spots remain.

For tougher stains or old drawings

  • If drawings have been left on for a long time, put a tiny drop of mild liquid dish soap on a damp cloth and gently wipe the stained areas.
  • After using soap, wipe again with a cloth dampened only with clean water, then dry thoroughly to remove any remaining residue.
  • Avoid scrub pads, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaner with ammonia, or alcohol-based cleaners, which can cloud or scratch the clear plastic surface over time.

What not to do

  • Do not immerse the Light Board in water or rinse it under a faucet; only the surface should be wiped.
  • Do not use other marker types (like permanent or generic dry-erase) on the board, as they may stain permanently; the product is designed for Crayola Gel FX style markers.
  • Do not leave wet wipes or saturated cloths sitting on the surface for a long time, since this can cause streaking or damage.

Quick “between drawings” wipe

  • For quick everyday cleanup, a lightly damp paper towel followed by a dry towel is usually enough to clear the screen so kids can start a new design.
  • If you notice smudging or ghost lines, repeat with a fresh damp towel once more, then finish with a dry towel to get it as clear as possible.
