Permanent Marker Stain on Carpet

My granddaughter got dark blue magic marker on my carpet tracing around a sheet of paper. I took Purell hand sanitizer and rubbed on the marks and took a rag and the blue marker came up very easily off my light green carpet.

Actually, I used Purell first, but only a slight little bit. No need to use two bottles. Then, I followed it up with scrubbing with a sponge soaked in Methyl Hydrate, available freely at hardware stores. All gone. (03/15/2009)
