Color Crayon on Couch

We have a light colored micro suede couch. My daughter decided to color on it with crayon? What will get it out? We tried hairspray-like for ink, but that didn't work.

Thanks for your advice...

This happened to my sister. Brand new couch, pink crayon covered the whole back. Her husband used a Magic Eraser and it came right off and you could never tell it had ever been there! Good luck!

My daughter did the the samething, we have the micro suede too. It came right off with Mr. Clean magic eraser.

Be real careful and maybe use a warmish iron and paper towel? that's what I had to do when one of mine got a crayon on a light blue carpet in our new single wide. Start with the paper towel(double ply)and iron just warm enough to melt the crayon, move the towel until the spot is gone, sometimes it might take more than one sheet.Just make sure the iron is only on the towel.
Good luck.

My little gem colored it all green. I just used a scrub brush and a little warm water with dish soap. With elbow grease it came out, without discoloring the sofa. You couldn't even tell. Good luck!

Try this stuff called "Goo Gone". You can find it at Walmart. It is amazing for gettting that type of stuff off of things.

HI,
try a plain paper bag small enough to fit over crayon area and a low heat iron. Did you try Mr. clean sponge...takes crayon off walls...maybe sofas! Should lift the wax and possibly some of the color. Also, try looking on crayola's web site...just an idea!
Good luck!

So, you've got an artist in the family, too! Our son colored with permanent marker on our couch. Nail polish remover worked well.
