Whiteboard marker help please

I would also have recommended body spray - any sort of deo apart from the ones which leave a white powder. I have used it to remove permanent marker from glass, so should remove whiteboard marker from clothing...Trust me - I'm NOT a doctor!0

Giving it a go with the body spray tomorrow. Do I spray it on and let it dry then wash or wash it when the spray is still wet?Sealed pot member 954:D

Yep definitely body spray - I'm a teacher and very clumsy! Just spray it on (quite a lot so it's wet) then rub it together, then a bit more spray, rub together again, then stick in the wash it should come out fine.

I would imagine it's pretty much the same as the hairspray, spray and dab, spray and dab - with hairspray it sort of dissolves into the rag you are using. I have a piece of old terry nappy I use for stuff like this.It's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your window

Well I tried the body spray and it made no difference at all:( Will buy some hairspray later and try that.

Are you sure it was a whiteboard pen and not a permanent marker?
Nail varnish remover is supposed to be good for removing permanent marker and I've heard good reviews about a product called Amodex.

He reckons it was whiteboard marker but I'm beginning to think it wasn't. Will try the nail varnish remover first thanks, it can't make it any worse can it:mad:Sealed pot member 954:D

Just resurrecting this thread as I am so impressed. My OH got blue board marker on his (TK MAX) designer shirt first time on! Wouldn't come out with washing up liquid or clothes washing liquid or vanish but a couple of squirts of hairspray and abracadabra it disappeared.
Many thanks
