Glass Whiteboards and Neodymium Magnets
Whether you’ve just purchased a magnetic glass board, or are considering one based on the rising trend, you may be wondering which magnets are best to accompany your latest investment.
Glass boards are made magnetic by adding a layer of steel sheet-metal behind the glass. The caveat to this long-lasting, aesthetically-pleasing board is that the thickness of the glass changes the performance of the magnets you choose.
