The permanent marker is convenient for making various kinds of writing, dedications, and engravings on school desks, in the diary or a book, in the chalk of a friend’s broken arm, and so on. Its thickness, its bright color, and its spirit smell characterize it.
Unfortunately, being indelible has its cons. While you are preparing the writing of the century, you are wrong, and you do not know how to erase it, and this is a problem!
Removing a permanent marker stain is often difficult, but not always; let’s say it depends on the surface on which it was used. So let’s find out together how to remove the permanent marker from a smooth surface.
Surface control
Before using to clean the stain caused by the permanent marker, it is necessary to analyze the contact surface. The material must not be absorbent; otherwise, you risk worsening the situation.
We must apply these methods that I will soon describe only and exclusively on smooth surfaces and not on others such as wood, plaster of the wall, ceramic, and leather. Always start with a neutral and ineffective solvent to understand how the type of surface we are working on reacts. So beware.
Dry marker method
One way to remove permanent marker stain from a surface is to purchase a dry marker. Apply it on the surface you want to clean, let it dry for about a minute. Then rinse with a cloth dipped in boiling water with soapy water. Remove the remains with a microfiber cloth.
Magic eraser method
Another method of removing permanent marker stain from a surface is to purchase a magic eraser. Follow the instructions given in the package insert, and you will solve your problem in seconds.
Method of the normal eraser
The third method that I propose to remove the stain caused by the permanent marker from a surface is to buy a very common eraser to erase the pencil and use it normally. You may not be able to resolve the problem completely.
Isopropyl alcohol method
The fourth way to remove the permanent marker stain from a surface is to pour isopropyl alcohol by dabbing and rubbing the affected area with paper towels. It often works, so rest assured!
Toothpaste method
The last method I propose to remove the stain caused by the permanent marker from a surface is to rub a little toothpaste on the stained surface. Let it dry, and finally, scrub it well with a toothbrush.
