Removing Sharpie from Piano Keys?

My daughter put a Sharpie stain on one of the keys of our piano. Any suggestions on how to remove it? Thanks.

Hey Hemakapadia, try alcohol, it should come right off :)

Try using a little bit of fingernail polish remover on a cotton ball. I have gotten Sharpie off plastic, as well as hard things. Hope this helps.

Alcohol works really well. If that doesn't do it, try a bit of baking soda on a damp cloth scrubbing carefully. The abrasive soda should take it off with a bit of elbow grease.

You can use a dry erase marker, rub it over the sharpie stain, and it should work. I saw this on the internet so give it a try if you want to.

DO NOT use nail varnish remover it only fades the ink and damages the keys
DO NOT use white board marker it just makes it worse
USE toothpaste

My 12 yr old daughter decided to help her 10 yr old sister learn the piano by marking every piano key with a sharpie. I tried all three of the above and the only one that worked was toothpaste. I used 'Aquafresh' triple protection which was marginally better than 'Senodyne' but they both worked. Hope this helps!

Use eucalyptus, nail polish remover and Sensodyne toothpaste. I guarantee it will work!
