Comments on: How to Remove Crayon Stains From Walls

on 1/4/2006 I couldn't imagine putting lighter fluid on my walls in the toy room. Just buy a Magic Eraser for a couple of dollars, wet it, and rub. I was able to clean a whole wall as high as my 3 year old could reach. It did take a little elbow grease, but my house isn't going to burn down.

on 1/4/2006 Soft Scrub with bleach on drywalls and Goo Gone on glass work really well.

on 1/4/2006 Try a product called De-Solve-It. Spray it on and the crayon wipes right off. It worked like what you would see on a commercial. I couldn't believe it the first time I used it.

on 1/4/2006 Try one of those new Magic Erasers that are in the stores. It even took permanent marker off my kitchen table!

on 1/4/2006 I am a day care teacher for 3-year olds. I use Mr. Clean Magic Erasers (or any non-name brand seems to work just as well). They have gotten crayon off every surface in my classroom with very little effort at all. All the other teachers in my center have started using them as well.

on 1/4/2006 I use the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser for everything. It works great on crayon and you use no cleaners on your walls; just the eraser and water. It's so easy.

on 1/2/2006 The quickest way to remove crayons from the walls is to use a blow dryer. Heat the area and wipe away with a wash cloth. Very quick and very little mess.

on 11/22/2005 I tried a paste made from baking soda and a little water, which got old crayon off a wall and it worked like a charm when other things had failed. My little Picasso was able to help with the process and he felt better about it, too!

on 11/22/2005 Nailpolish remover does the trick!!

on 11/22/2005 I used Ka-boom bathroom cleaner. It worked perfect. Spray a little on and using the rough side of your sponge, scrub the mark. Crayon comes right off.

on 11/22/2005 I put baking soda on the kid's crayon stained table, and my son's workbench. I then placed water on a toothbrush and scrubbed the tables. The crayon stains came off. You just saved me from going out and buying stuff I didn't have to buy!

on 11/22/2005 Spray 'N Wash applied with a toothbrush or a scrub brush (plus some elbow grease) worked great - without damaging the surface.

on 11/22/2005 I just used this method, and it totally removed a large crayon "drawing" (which was created by my two year old girl). Just apply a little liquid candle wax remover to a dry rag and re-apply it a few times a minute. Keep it moist. Just wipe it along the crayon marks, and they should come off easily. Even the darkest, worst marks will come right off. After you've removed the marks, get a damp rag with a little soap and water and lightly wash the wall to remove any remaining residue (there shouldn't be any, though). Allow it to air-dry. This is MUCH safer for you and your kids than spraying WD40 in your house.

on 11/22/2005 Use Goo Gone and some good old-fashioned elbow grease. It works great. For pencil marks, use a cleaner with orange oil.

on 11/22/2005 Make sure to test a small area first. I haven't had any scratches yet, but check it just in case. My child is the artist. While I'm cleaning one, he's coloring another! Dip the pad in warm water and scrub in the direction of the scribble.
