Icicle Tricycle Question

[Crystal Reynolds]

This might be too specific for anyone to know the answer, but I wanted to see if anyone had tried out chalk markers on their chalkboard. It seems non porous, but I want to be sure.

Thanks if anyone has an answer!

Hi! Yes we use chalk markers and have had no issues. :)

I also have an Icicle Tricycle book bike and have used chalk markers with no problem.

Thanks to everyone who shared their experience.

I tried it out and I will say I'm getting some ghosting after I erased it, meaning pale shapes left after all the color has been cleaned off. We've tried water, soap, windex, and alcohol, and we'll try a magic eraser next.  It seems like the quality of the chalk markers you use make a big difference, so try a small inconspicuous area and let it sit for a few hours to see if it wipes off when you try a new brand of marker.

Just as a final note on this topic, the magic eraser did fully work. The kind we used were these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B094Z8WWM3?ref=fed_asin_title&th=1. Although the magic eraser worked, I'm not sure I'd recommend them because I think other kinds are supposed to be able to wipe off with water, so maybe it's worth looking for ones that are more convenient to remove.
