Restore a Permanent Ink Marker |
|
|
Is there any way to restore a permanent ink marker when they get exposed to the air and dry out? Crayola markers can be restored with acetone.

RE: Restore a Permanent Ink Marker
You can extend the life of a dried out permanent marker somewhat by dipping the tip in rubbing alcohol and storing it tip side down overnight. If you try to use it before some time has passed, the marker is too wet with not enough color. Also, if the marker is really dried out, you may have to repeat the procedure.

I've always used vinegar, just take the end off the marker, put in a few drops of vinegar and stand upright for @30 seconds.
