Permanent Marker

This is not a question, more of a helpful hint to all you moms out there. A few months ago my husband told me that he found out how to get rid of permanent marker. He said that if you take a dry erase marker and mark over the permanent marker and then wipe it off and then repeat if needed, that it would take off the permanent marker. I have not had to use this information untill just the other day when my 3 year old daughter decided to write on our dishwasher with permanent marker. I tried windex to get it off and it just smeared it and then later on I had remembered what he had told me. So I grab a dry erase marker and tried it. I was so surprised!!! It acctually came off!!! I am so excited about it, that I thought I would pass this along. I am not sure what all types of surfaces that this works on. Hope this helps any of you moms out there who have children that love to draw on things other than paper!!!
