I just had my 18 month old color with a black sharpie permanent marker on my wood table top, my linolium floor, some toys, a window and a placemat. Goo gone didn't work, neither did hair spray or using a dry erase marker, as I read on other sites. The only thing that worked with unbelievable ease was antibacterial hand gel, like purell or Germ-X. Worked wonders, got the marker off of everything-wood, linolium floor, plastic, and glass. I just wiped with dawn/water in a sponge afterwards to clean off any residual gel.

Removing ink stains - Use Amodex. Best stuff I've ever found. Product is a creamy soap formula. Really mild. Takes out all inks including sharpie and expo and doesn't harm the fabric. I've used it on cashmere, silk, my wool rugs and even LCD screen. Hair spray and alcohol only set the stain.

Citrol. Citrus hand cleaner-Degreaser/cleaner. My son got Sharpie permanent marker on my brand new finished dining table. We used Citrol cleaner and it removed the stain without removing the finish. Spray it on, let it soak for a minute or two and blot it up with a paper towel and repeat until the stain is gone.

My 2 year old got hold of several different color permanent markers and let the Picasso inside her loose on our expensive dining table. I searched Google and found the toothpaste tip. I tried it, and after 3-4 minutes of rubbing and waiting, it was all back to normal! Thanks everyone for sharing your tips.

My eldest son got a permanent marker and scribbled on his brothers coat. I used toothpaste, and with a little bit of elbow grease and time, it come off brilliantly. I would recommend it to any one.

A little Goop hand cleaner and a lot of elbow grease will take it right off.

I had a box of Kleenex on the dresser and it must have been damp. The cardboard adhered to the wood. I removed the cardboard with white vinegar and Murphy's oil soap. I was shocked to see the ink from the print had embedded itself in the dresser! I tried mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon, Murphy's oil ----even a plastic scrubber. Weeks later, I tried toothpaste. I let it set about 1 minute and the ink disappeared with one wipe of a terrycloth rag! Simply amazing!

My son colored on our table with a permanent marker. After trying to get it off unsuccessfully, I finally decided to try to just erase it with a pencil eraser. This is how teachers get permanent marker off laminated posters. I was thrilled that it worked. You can't tell it was ever there. Erase gently, so as not to damage the wood.

What sometimes works to remove permanent marker is a dry erase marker. Note that this can only be used on a non porous surface (no cloth or leather unfinished wood, etc.). Test to make sure the dry erase marker wipes away easily from the surface in a non-conspicuous area, then draw over the whole area of the marker stain and let it sit for about 10 seconds or so, then wipe it away! For older stains, you might repeat this 2 or 3 times.

A tip I picked up from a carpet fitter: For wool carpets use a tiny amount of White Spirit on a cloth and dab the stain. I just removed a large amount of permanent marker pen from a cream carpet using White Spirit.
