How do I get silver permanent marker off my red backpack? My little sister wrote her name all over it and I need to get this off ASAP!
By JoeyM.
I have had good luck using straight isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. You may have to do it more than once to get all the black off and there is also a chance that it will take up the dye of the backpack, so test a section first.
Good luck!
Some one drew on my school bag with permanent marker. So how do I get permanent marker off of my back-pack?
Usually, Permanent means permanent. Can you draw or paint or sew on a patch over it?
I have had good luck using isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol to remove black sharpie from a fabric backpack. It will take some work and it may remove dye from the background too. Try using a cotton ball or q-tip to a small part to see how it reacts.
Good luck!
I know right
I have a black backpack with silver Sharpie permanent marker on it. I need the writing off of it before tomorrow. Any suggestions? I can't go buy a new backpack or anything at the store. I'm on a budget. Any ideas?
If you have a black permanent marker can't you go over the silver with that. I don't know of any way that you can get the actual silver writing off, other than covering it with black marker.
I have had good success getting black Sharpie off of a backpack with Rubbing Alcohol. I'm not sure how different the silver is from the black, but it would be a good place to start. Worst case, it might just lighten it.
Good Luck, let us know how it turned out.
I had pink and silver on my book bag i got it off with rubbing alcohol
While using a Sharpie permanent marker, I got some on my sweater which is 65% polyester and 35% cotton. Any ideas on how to remove this stain?
alcohol..and not the type you drink lol....lay on top of a towel you no longer want, like if it's on a arm seperate the fabric so it's only the layer with the spot (understand?) and pour alcohol over it letting it go through into the towel.
Try spraying the ink spot with hair spray then rinse with cool water.
Use hairspray and Alcohol
When I was in like third grade I decided to write my school's name in Sharpie on my little backpack. I'm now a sophomore and I have tried and tried, but can't get it out of the backpack. Please help!
Take a cotton ball or a cotton swap (q-tips), wet them down a little with nail polish remover, or rubbing alcohol, then wipe away the text

I used hand sanitizer on the marker stains. Pour the sanitizer on the stain and blot until all is removed. This worked for me. Hope this helps.

Someone messed with my counted cross stitch that I have been working on since May with a green Sharpie pen! I need someway to get it out.
Try this in a test area first. Put dry erase marker over the sharpie. One should cancel out the other when you wipe off gently

How do you get permanent black marks out of a tan all weather coat?
By Becky B.
Supersaturate it with hair spray. Then wash as normal. It may take two or three washings, but for certain the ink will come out.

I got a new blue and white backpack for school this year. I let a friend borrow a highlighter. When they were finished with it, they put it in the front pocket of my new backpack. The next morning I noticed the highlighter bled through. :( I've tried washing it in the washer as my mom suggested but it just made it worse. Please help me!
