K.E.
Did you try the "magic eraser"? It usually works really well on my walls to get off just about everything and also white casserole dishes.
Does anyone have any advice on how to remove markers from a table painted white? i have tried "standard" household cleaners to no avail. I could repaint it, but would like to find some way to remove them.

Have you tried the Mr. Clean magic eraser? As a house cleaner I love that thing!
You can try WD-40 or something like Goop be Gone. Just be sure to test on a spot under the table FIRST.
This is from the Queen of Clean (I havn't tried it yet, so don't know if it works):
Wipe all stains with a damp sponge. If any satin remains, apply a soft-scrubbing product with a damp sponge, working in a circular motion and rinse. If the stain remains, saturate a cotton ball with nail polish remover, blot the stain and rinse well.
Good luck....and just to be safe, make sure all markers are "washable" if they are in the hands of wee ones:)
Get a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. I have yet to find anything that this can't remove or clean. They are awesome. Just keep them away from your little ones as I read an article in Parents magazine where a child had a horrible reaction to the cleaner in them. I have not had any problems, but it's just a precaution. Good luck!
Try spreading shaving cream on the markers. That is what we used to get marker off the tables in cubbies.
At the dollar store they carry a cleaner called "Awsome" My mom told me about it. It works on almost everything. I use it alot on my daughters clothes for stains. Try it on a small spot to make sure it doesn't do anything to the paint. It shouldn't but you never know. I used it on my kitchen wall when my daughter colored w/ black permenant marker. It took 90% of it off. You can barely see it. It is also avail at Family Dollar I believe. Good Luck!
Mr. Clean magic erasers are amazing and they work on EVERYTHING!
I use the Magic Erasers from Mr Clean or generic ones on just about everything- I love them!!!
The best thing for removing marker especially if it's permanent marker is rubbing alcohol. Just a small amount on a rag. Hopefully you haven't set the stain by using the other products first though.
Good Luck! C.
You could try a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, but it might scratch the paint or even take it off - read the precautions first!
This might sound odd, but that gel hand sanitizer stuff gets out just about anything.
eraser & maybe a new painted table too...LOL
