Claims (30)

1 . A whiteboard eraser comprising:

a first side defining a grip surface; and

a second side defining an eraser surface,

wherein the eraser surface comprises a reticulated scrubbing portion.

2 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 1 , wherein the eraser surface further comprises a textile wiping portion that is less abrasive than the reticulated scrubbing portion, and wherein the textile wiping portion and the reticulated scrubbing portion are provided in disparate zones on the eraser surface.

3 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 2 , wherein the textile wiping portion is constructed of one or more of the materials from the group consisting of: felt, wool, synthetic wool, or microfiber.

4 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 3 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion is constructed of plastic foam material.

5 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 2 , wherein the disparate zones include a first zone of the textile wiping portion forming a perimeter around a second zone of the reticulated scrubbing portion.

6 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 5 , wherein the first zone has a greater surface area than the second zone.

7 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 2 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion defines a face that protrudes from a face defined by the textile wiping portion.

8 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 1 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion defines a pore count of 5 to 125 pores per inch.

9 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 8 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion defines a pore count of not more than 25 pores per inch.

10 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 9 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion defines a pore count of not more than 15 pores per inch.

11 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 1 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion material is constructed of one or more of the materials from the group consisting of: polypropylene, polyethylene, polyurethane, and nylon.

12 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 1 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion is constructed of plastic or elastomeric material.

13 . A whiteboard eraser comprising:

a first side defining a grip surface; and

a second side defining an eraser surface,

wherein the eraser surface comprises a textile wiping portion and a reticulated scrubbing portion more abrasive than the textile wiping portion.

14 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 13 , wherein the textile wiping portion and the reticulated scrubbing portion are provided in disparate zones on the eraser surface.

15 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 14 , wherein the disparate zones include a first zone of the textile wiping portion forming a perimeter around a second zone of the reticulated scrubbing portion.

16 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 15 , wherein the first zone has a greater surface area than the second zone.

17 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 13 , wherein the textile wiping portion is constructed of one or more of the materials from the group consisting of: felt, wool, synthetic wool, or microfiber.

18 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 13 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion is constructed of plastic foam material.

19 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 13 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion defines a face that protrudes from a face defined by the textile wiping portion.

20 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 13 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion defines a pore count of 5 to 125 pores per inch.

21 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 20 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion defines a pore count of not more than 25 pores per inch.

22 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 21 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion defines a pore count of not more than 15 pores per inch.

23 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 13 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion is constructed of one or more of the materials from the group consisting of: polypropylene, polyethylene, polyurethane, and nylon.

24 . The whiteboard eraser of claim 13 , wherein the reticulated scrubbing portion is constructed of plastic or elastomeric material.
