The other day we were putting pictures on a CD from my computer and my daughter accidentally mislabeled two of the CDs. She was using permanent marker. Is there anyway we can erase the label on the CD in order to label it right?

This will help you. Spray a little "OFF" Deep Woods (unscented is nice)on to a paper towel and wipe where the Permanent Marker is on the CD. Off comes the Permanent Marker.

Rubbing alcohol will remove permanent marker from C D's Use a Q-tip and presto it is gone.

You can't remove the marker from the CD. I would just get a CD labeler & make your own cover for it.

Regular permanent markers & solvents can damage your CD's & DVD's. This damage will defeat the purpose of the CD's for storing valuable information or photos. You should always use CD markers made specifially for labelling CD's and DVD's. I am skeptical that the permanent ink these markers contain is different from other permanent markers, but for under $5 for a set of markers... why take the chance of ruining the storage life of valuable CD's?

I just this minute tried an idea. It worked!
White Spirit. On a small cotton ball and a bit of elbow grease!
I had the CD on a cloth to stop any scratches. The wiped any surplus spirit off with the cloth afterwards.
Wait for it to dry then rename your CD's.
Thank you for prompting me to do this, now I can rename some of my CD's too!

Most permanent marker can be removed with isopropyl alcohol.
