    have you any hairspray? I used this on a deep biro ben mark on a picture frame (highly reduced because of it) it dissolved the ink so was very easy to wipe off. Did not mark the gold painted finished on the frame.

    Isopropyl and Meths are both types of Alcohol.

    Vodka is a diluted form of .......... alcohol. The washing liquid I suggested was to prevent the alcohol drying out, the alcohol dissolves the ink which is then blotted up by the paper.

    Don't use ANYTHING that's gritty unless you want to destroy the laptop. Hairspray leaves a layer.
  • Sounds gross I know but it does work!

    Hopefully you are a smoker, if not find an ashtray wish some fag ash in.

    Wrap some tissue around your index finger, wet the end and dip it into the ash so it sticks to your wet fingertip and use this on the biro mark.

    This should get it clean for you, as it works on permanent marker very well.
