Removing biro marks from Wellies

horseykitty

My lovely daughter has found a blue biro and scribbled all over her brand new Peppa Pig wellies - does anyone know how I can get it off? I've has a quick rub at them with a babywipe but this hasn't touched it. I haven't tried Cif or any abrasive cleaner on them yet.

Hairspray gets biro marks out of fabric, so maybe try spraying a little of that on and see if it helps?

acetone (nail varnish rmover) should do it.

Difficult one. I would try acetone as suggested, meths and white spirit.

But the risk is that you will weaken the rubber or spoil the finish. I would try white spirit first, but that is just my idea.

Agreed, I used to use nail polish remover to removed skuff marks from some white patent shows I had when I was younger (oh the shame ). Worked a treat though!
