Permanent Texta and Demin...Removal tips?

[mrscricket]

*Mods - not sure if this is the correct section *

Yesterday I decided to wear my gorgeous, gorgeous pale grey skinny jeans that DH brought me a while ago. Enter DS and a permanent marking texta which he accidently drew a big stripe down my leg *sob*. I sprayed them with Preen and washed them but it's still on there. Anyone have any nifty tips that I could use to remove it? This is the exact reason I don't wear nice clothes around my kids

I don't know if the wash will have 'set' it... BUT you could try hairspray.... it lifts permanent ink from most materials. Saturate the stain with hairspray and then blot with a cloth.
Good luck x

Thanks Krystals! Will give it a shot - anything is worth a try as they are pretty much ruined now anyway. Thanks x

i used nail polish to blot permanent ink from fabric. Just make sure you blot it off till its all gone, don't apply & walk away as the ink with run & it will look worse.

I think you might mean nail polish remover...

i got red perm marker on the back of my mums car seat when i was a kid and she got it out with metho.
otherwise, take it to a seamstress and get her to cut out the marker and put a funky patch in it's place ><;
