I have Sharpie on my polished quartz counter top that I did on accident. How do I get it out?

If you are allowed to use rubbing alchohol on the surface, that should get it off. A magic eraser will, too; but follow the manufacturers directives as to whether it will dull the shine. (It shouldn't with a quick, not-too-hard rub?)
I just tested using sharpie marker and white quartz - I had a sample. By far the best method was rubbing alcohol. Had to repeat 4 times but it came out
Melaleuca makes a product called Solumel that takes off permanent marker without damaging the finish.
Try using hair spay and if that don't work then use an Expo marker.
Nail polish remover
I have removed a sharpe mark with WD-40.
I just used hand soap and it worked fine!
Expo/Dry Erase markers do not work on Quartz countertops - the countertop is too porous and absorbs that marker, in addition to the Sharpie.
Same thing happened to me on my brand new quartzite, Dark purple sharpie on light colored quartzite. 70% isopropyl and a bit of elbow grease removed the sharpie marks completely. Phew!
