Dry Erase Marker on Wood

RE: Dry Erase Marker on Wood Post By tami (Guest Post) (05/28/2008) Wow. I'm glad I found this thread. I just used a magic eraser to get marker off my dining room tabletop after trying vinegar, ammonia cleaner, water, dry erase board cleaner and anything else I could lay my hands on. The magic eraser took some scrubbing but it's gone. Lucky baby.

I took some dish detergent and a toothbrush to it and that only lightened it. I have also tried rubbing alcohol and that didn't really seem to do anything, not that I noticed anyway. Does anyone know how to remove washable marker? Report Spam or Abuse RE: Dry Erase Marker on Wood Post by niese423 (6) | (01/26/2007) Profile | Blog! | Contact Try the Mr Clean Magic Eraser. That sponge works great. Haven't found anything it won't remove yet.

Does anyone have any tips on how to remove it? The wood is unfinished. Thank you! Christine from Menomonie, WI Answers: RE: Dry Erase Marker on Unfinished Wood Try rubbing alcohol or an astringent.

The list includes: alcohol, goo gone, goof off, greased lighting, Mr Clean magic eraser, hairspray, antibacterial hand gel, clorox bleach pen. I even tried using just a plain eraser. Nothing worked to remove it but in some areas it did get lighter. If you find out what works please post it & let me know.

Your best bet is sanding the area until you can no longer see the color. (02/06/2006) By Susan Report Spam or Abuse
