Hi, I was wondering if anyone had a solution for dry erase marks on our wall! We rent an apartment and unfortunately do not have the matching paint to do a touch-up. Has anyone found a way to successfully remove such marks? [I still don't know how he even got into the drawer with the markers in it!]
Try the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, they work wonderfully!! I have gotten many marks off my walls and other things.
Hi have you tried Mr. Clean Erasers? They aren't very expensive.. You wet them and they remove most anything.. I have actually gotten permanent marker off with them.
Hope this helps.

Have you tried a magic eraser? I am not sure who makes it but you can get them in the cleaning isle at Walmart or Target. I know they take ink out of clothing and scuff marks off walls. Good Luck!
Funny that you mention it, I was just playing with some remedies myself for the same thing. Rubbing alcohol will dissolve the ink, but also take off some of the paint. From previous experience, I can tell you to be careful with Magic Eraser for the same reason, especially if the paint is something other than white - if the paint is thin or you rub too hard, the magic eraser will go through it.
Mr Clean Magic Eraser! My daughter is notorious for doing this. It can be used for crayons, pens, pencils, marker, dry erase, dirty handprints, finger paint-the list goes on! I've found even generic works well.
Try the miracle sponge by Mr Clean or even generic brands work also. Let me know if it works.
I always use soft scrub with BLEACH, it works wonders. You can also try thr Mr Clean magic eraser. Good luck!!
Try Mr. Clean magic eraser. I use it all the time for almost everything. Works like magic :))
I don't know if it will work on that but the Mr. Clean Eraser gets a lot off of walls and other things. Try it!
My first attempt would be with Mr. Clean Magic Erasers.
Magic Eraser, but definately go lightly at first. It will take off the paint if you press too hard.
Hi Steela,
The Mr. Clean magic eraser worked for me. You can wet it or use it dry. Find it in the cleaning product isle.
It's truly magic,

Unfortunately, my budding artists constantly write on the walls when I'm not looking. There is a product for $1 called "Awesome" at the Dollar Tree. It is a yellow solution in a clearish bottle with red writing. I explain it this way because I noticed they have several other Awesome brand products there now. It can be found with all the cleaning supplies at Dollar Tree. The bottle reads "LA's Totally AWESOME all purpose concentrated cleaner, degreaser spot remover". I never dilute it, just use it full strength.
I now use it in place of the high price pre treatment products for my laundry. This stuff removed ink (with a little work) from clothing!
Hope this info helps!
I DO HAVE A GREAT SOLUTION FOR THAT!

Try Mr Cleans magic eraser. When we rented our apartment I used it for everything. Never had marker on the wall though so I am not sure that it works but it is worth a shot. Good Luck to you.
Try a little rubbing alchohol. Dab, don't rub! : )
I'm not sure if this will work, but I know to get permanent marker off of a whiteboard you can use rubbing alcohol. I'm not sure if it would work similarly on a wall without damaging the paint, but you could a small spot to just to see how they react. Good luck!!
Try wiping with pure vinegar. It's totally natural, cheap, and the dry erase should come right out without scrubbing. (Try a very small section first, to make sure your paint doesn't come off, too!)
