    Hi

    I've recently seen a promotional video on WD40 (spray oil you can buy in car accessory shops or some supermarkets). Apparently it can remove all sorts of stuff! (as well as lubricating door hinges, repelling water from car engines etc). Spray it onto a cloth and wipe it over the pen mark.

    Hope you've been able to get the mark out one way or another. Let us all know what eventually removed it.:D

    Raggy Dolls - Childrens TV show (from 80s/80s) about toys that were 'rejects' so got thrown int he reject bin!

    Sorry to add confusion to this discussion! :p

    As for genuine suggestions, I'm really not sure, as someone suggested the textured surface of the plastic may make it difficult to remove.

    Cheers

    Dont use acetone it will make the vinyl shiny, have never tried hairspray but will give it a go in future. If you put either oxy10 (for acne) or Jolen cream bleach (for facial hair) an the areas that have the ink, over a period of time it will remove it, it is not instant and may even take a few weeks and a few applications but it will work. It accelerates it if it is left where the sun can get at it, conservatory or a window, hope this helps
