on 1/22/2008 We used Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and it ruined our walls. It left dark spots everywhere we used it, now we can't get the dark spots off. I think Mr. Clean says not to use it on high-gloss finishes. We have a semi-gloss finish I think. Any suggestions on how to clean this up?

on 12/2/2007 Hey this thing works great. When it comes to the unbeatable markers. Have you tried baking soda and water, super cheap at discount and dollar stores but it just can't compare to the Eraser when it comes to the permanent marker.

on 11/30/2007 The Mr. Clean Eraser works really well. It'll even take crayon off the wall.
