Do the markers really not show up?

No not much, but then i used crayolas washable markers instead on the mat and then it was perfect!

I bought a pack of Crayola washable dry erase markers and crayons because the markers that came with it were so faint. They work really well and erase completely. Now I am very happy with the product, and will refrain from throwing it out the window.

Yes, they really do not. They are so faint you really can't see the drawings. I was very disappointed. I never considered using regular Crayola washables as Jessica mentioned but that's a good idea. I also highly recommend their window markers for young kids, my 4-year-old can spend hours standing at the window drawing and writing her name and the doodle mat never held her attention that well.

Not really. They are so faint that it is definitely not worth it. It just looks like colored water drawn on the mat, if that.

Chalk markers work fine and show up much clearer than actual chalk. I would suggest rubbing actual chalk all over it then wiping it off with your finger just to give it that actual chalkboard look. Then using marker over top of it.

Unfortunately no- they are organized in colors, but the pens do not have any indication of their color

Mine did not have a black marker on it. There were no relevant instructions included. What was included was probably relevant to another earlier model, but not this one. I expect there are chinese workers who pack these things, and don't know english, so don't realize that what they are inserting into the box doesn't go with the product.

Yes! All of these colours, as well as metallic silver and gold (which you can also snag on Amazon) show up really well -- surprisingly, the black marker shows up pretty good, too. The paint is a little shiny, so against a matte paper it's visible. Here's a quick test image for you: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/88630699/uni-poscatest.jpg

I am sorry,but I did not use the markers. I donated them to a school in the Amazon.

My granddaughter uses magnetic letters and paper for the other side and that way the easel board does not get marked up. Are u sure you purchased the correct markers? Hope this helps.

I'm looking for them too. I went to the crayola website and didn't see them there. This is a fun toy so I hope they have the markers available somewhere. 2 of our markers dried up after 3 uses (the blue and green one). I wonder if neon crayons would work?

They didn't acknowledge to me that there was an issue with the markers. They sent me $8 in coupons for my inconvenience. If there are replacement markers I'd love to try the product again.

not sure about markers, but set is not worth the money. The board is very flimsy and the balls roll off the surface.

I haven't had to replace markers yet but regular dry erase would not glow like the ones that come with it.

I'll keep my eye open and let you all know. I tried using different crayola markers from color explosion and they don't work very well. So if you have those try it out until you get the refills. Has anyone out there tried other markers or know where to purchase the refills.....

Since they could not ever be recreated, I used the markers provided. Why take a chance?

Yes liquid chalk markers do work on this board! Neon & white show up best. Blue markers are the least effective (I found). Neon pink, neon orange, & white markers work best.

Sorry it's taken so long to respond. I finally was able to take a good look at the device to discovered its origins, but, I must report, there are no marks whatsoever. The package has been tossed, so I guess I can't help.

I am sorry I don't know the answer to that. All I know is it worked for the project I needed. I was able to trace a pattern and a marker did not bleed through. Hope that helps sorry if it does not.

This set comes with the following markers: 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, and 0.7. Hope that helps!
