How to Refill Dry Erase Markers. Save money on expensive dry erase markers by
reviving them or refilling them yourself. You can not purchase ink to refill the markers,
but using a bit of acetone can help to extend the life of your dry erase markers. If you
have acetone on hand, there likely will not be a need to purchase any other equipment,
as they are commonly found items.

Isopropanol, also known as isopropyl alcohol, is another chemical found in dry-erase Whiteboard
markers. Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) is a solvent--a chemical that dissolves other
substances and mixes with other solvents easily. IPA is found in many household
products, including rubbing alcohol, cleaners, glue, paint and inks. Like most types of
Dry Erase Markers &
alcohol, isopropanol is highly flammable; never expose dry-erase markers to an open Health
flame. Inhaling the fumes of a dry-erase marker can cause both long-term and short-
term health hazards, such as irritation to the mucous membranes, confusion and
possibly kidney or liver problems.
Resins are typically derived from plants, and are sticky or solid in their natural state. The
resin is alcohol-soluble, and dissolves in contact with the other chemicals in the dry-
erase marker. This allows the resin to mix with pigment and flow through the marker. Signs and Symptoms
Once exposed to air, the alcohol begins to evaporate, which causes the resin to revert of Ink Poisoning
to its original state. Combined with pigment, the resin becomes solid once more,
retaining the shape left by the marker.
