Removing Sharpie from a Couch

My daughter used a Sharpie marker on my couch. Any ideas on how to remove this?

I have used WD40. Make sure you test a spot to make sure it won't affect your couch color.

I have used lighter fluid to remove magic marker when my kids were little. Just make sure you do a color fastness test on the back where nobody will see it.

Try a product called "Simple Green". I believe you find it in the automotive section of Walmart, Sam's Club, etc. I knows it's removed Sharpie marker from hard surfaces for me, just don't know about material. You might look on the back of the label for uses or call the manufacturer. Good luck! Susan

Try nail polish remover.

I would put hairspray on the mark then put salt on it then rub it in circular motions.
