Hi, I tried several suggestions posted here to remove permanent marker from my vinyl siding (put on courtesy of neighborhood hoodlums). The Isopropyl alcohol did nothing at all. Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser helped but would take a long time and a lot of effort. Nail polish remover took it right off - easy - no work required. I recommend nail polish remover.

What worked for me was lock de-icer. Very nice. No effort at all. Bill in Canada.

Fingernail polish remover should work, but do a test patch first. You can also try a product called Awesome sold at Dollar Tree stores. It took 3 big blobs of purple Sharpie marker out of my tan microsuede couch!

Isopropyl alcohol should do it. Always works for me.

You can try getting a little bottle of Enamal Thinner made by "Testors". I used to by it at a hobby store. It comes in little 1/4 ounce glass bottles. During the Xmas holiday I work at the mall personalizing ornaments and we use permanent marker on resin ornaments and the ONLY thing that would remove the permanent maker is the enamel thinner...NOT alcohol.. and NOT nail polish remover. The thinner should work :)
