Try scrubbing bubbles spray foam! Try it on your blinds also. dirt, grease, markers, run right off!

Try silicone (comes in an aerosole can). My husband is a blind installer and uses this on many marks that come from the manufacturers.

I have had good luck with Comet, or some other abrasive cleaner, but I have also had the Comet remove the finish from the surface (ie paint from the wall!). Try a small inconspicuous spot first.
Are your blinds metallic or plastic, or are they fabric covered? A smooth surface should be relatively easy to clean, but a fabric covered blind may require something else again.

Ranger makes a solution that is used with their alcohol inks. Cost for a small bottle 5.00 at the most a little goes a long way. Sharpies are alcohol based pens. This will clean it up nicely.

Most permanent marker can be removed with isopropyl alcohol.

Try going over the permanent marker with a dry-erase marker. It has worked for me on many surfaces except some metals. Good Luck!
