OH my gosh! I'm mind blown! The dry Ease Marker worked amazing!!!!!
lol, yea. You feel like your just making it worse, but its good.
THANKS Steve! Great, scientific, helpful video! Perfect! The Sharpie markers are alcohol based so it would make sense that alcohol would remove it with a little elbow grease.
thanks,, erasable marker seems to be easiest , all depends on suface
This was a great video Steve! Also congrats on hitting 1k!
Thanks Chris!
Once again Steve coming through with videos and info that help ALL resellers! I owe a lot of my new reselling success to you bro! Thanks again for all the great content and info!
Wow, thanks!! Good to know I'm helping and happy to hear your doing good. , appreciate you saying that, ever have a question, feel free to ask.
Pick & Roll thanks man! There’s a lot of resellers on RUclips that are entertaining, but you offer the most legit help for us newbies trying to learn. I’ve saved a lot watching you, starting way back when you mentioned the free UPS labels! PS-definitely gonna try the dry erase tip!

@@angelic3364 thanks
Congrats on 1k subs!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
They all worked well, but the dry eraser (to me) was clearly the winner. Very easy, no chance of really soaking into the box, and removed the maker easily. Excellent video.
Yes, for this surface I agree, thanks

Romano, it's great to see you after retirement! Enjoyed the research and video! 🤘
Yea, you know, gotta keep busy.
I have a plastic covered VCR tape case with a name written in permanent marker. I think the tape's case is kind of valuable and don't wish to hurt it in anyway. I think this video is giving me courage, but maybe I'll try on a not so valuable case first. Thank you, so much. Great scientific method, too!
I use the erasable marker mostly.. Rub it over the ink, you'll see the ink break up, then wipe
You sound like Ray Romano!
lol, your the 2nd person to say that recently. thanks for watching
Oh wow!! Good call!!
Don’t be mean 🤣
Everybody loves Raymond
Great video idea and very helpful! Thank you!
HI, Thanks for watching.
My Husband & I enjoyed your test, Overall Great Tutorial! TFS
Thanks for watching!
I had large plastic storage bins with sharpie words written and I first tied the alcohol, not much effect at all, then lighter fluid, same, nothing much...I tried the eraser and that did work, but left smudges, so then I tried the WD40, some immediate removal, but still not fast, as soon as I added a bit of Baking Soda to the WD 40, it came off fast! It did scratch the plastic surface somewhat as you could see it on an angle. Yet, the WD40 and Baking Soda was the winner for me! Yes, you have a good video, thanks!
Good to know, thanks. I think the ink can absorb into some plastics which makes it harder to get off
hey can you try the test on the inside label of the clothes ? It's much harder to remove on the clothes tags than boxes. Goodwill will sometimes write on the tags of their boutique items which is annoying.
My Goodwill writes on everything, including ALL clothes. I know, I hate it!! I have found best way is just spray with Oxy clean, then wash. I have tried by dabbing/but makes a smear, washing "usually" is better.
Great experiment! We really appreciate it 😃 Maybe you could do an experiment on getting sharpie off clothing tags 🏷
thanks, My goodwill does that, they write on everything including the clothes. Best bet is spray with oxy clean, then wash.
What about items that need dry cleaning? Would dry erase marker work?
Thank you so much im just getting into reselling and my dufflebag has a bunch of sharpie on it.
knew i could count on youtube
Goodluck.
This was soooo helpful! I purchased a deck of cards from the Thrift with marker all over them. The alcohol became a bit frustrating with little marks being left. Hehe, Now, the Dry Erase Pen. Just happen to have a couple in the desk. Thanks so much and Cheers:)
Glad it helped, yea, each method works but some better than others.
Steve, that's a great test, you should try a magic eraser, that's been what I use, but I might try the dry erase marker too cause that works great.
Thanks Matt
Thanks for the video!! Now I have some marker to go clean up lol
Glad I could help!
What a great video. If you are ever looking for another test, I would like to see at the bottom of shoes. Ugh! I hate that. I have one of everything you demonstrated...including the dry erase marker...so I should be set the next time I have something to remove. Thanks!
Thanks!, Yea, my GW writes on EVERYTHING!, even the clothes, shoes are tough because the ink kinda soaks into the rubber.
I haven’t found anything to get the black markings from goodwill on bottoms of shoes off did you 🙏
This helps so much thanks!
thanks
I've also had good luck with Pure Citrus - Orange Air Freshener. Thanks for the videos.
I remember than stuff, I used to use it in the house years ago. Interesting, must be the oils in it that help remove the ink. Thanks
Hmm..
I think the "dry erase" works via the ole hairdressers saying that " Color removers color", when hair dye gets on the skin..thnx for the vid, i needed it.
Interesting!
what a great video. You did multiple cleaners, 1 day, then 6 days. Very scientific. Good job!!
Thanks,
OMG TYSMM you saved me!!I was drawing on the wall with paper and accidentally drew on the wall!ITS Permanent MARKER! My grandma said if I don’t wipe it off,I can’t leave.So I tried so many things,DIDNT WORK so I searched on YT and guess what I found nail polish remover!!
Glad I could help!
Thank you for testing this, I will be using the dry erase for now on.
Your welcome, yea same here.
Nice video. Was these methods tries on a porous mate surface or on a shiny UV coated surface ?
I'm pretty sure I mention n the vid.. it was a typical glossy box a lot of products com in. If it was raw cardboard it will not come off
Dude ty this helped my pictures a lot
glad it helped
Great video I like the dry erase method thanks for sharing
thanks. Yes, you feel as your making it worse, but it works!
Thanks for the tip man... polish remover worked for me....
Cool, glad it helped.
Wonderful. I sharpied my whiteboard not knowing it's actually a permanent marker.
should come off a whiteboard easily with any of the options.
Thank you my sister was drawing on my piano the day we got, helps a lot
Glad it helped!
The lighter fluid works perfectly thanks man
Cool, your welcome
The shiny gloss coating on that box was a major factor here.... marker would penetrate most other surfaces. They all work like that on glass too. But on wood. Paper or even my counter top.. the nail polish remover did best... but not great..... try some Walmart acetone
yes for sure. Targeted to resellers, and majority of product boxes are glossy. Raw cardboard, wood, etc are porous and it gets absorbed- tough to get fully off/out. thanks
Nail polish works perfect thank you
You’re welcome
This is great but it seems like it'd be much quicker using some paper towel or cotton balls. The dry erase trick was pretty cool, but I think the ingredient doing the work in that pen might also be isopropyl alcohol, or the like
thanks
Left hander 🎉🎉🎉🎉 and thank for doing this
thanks
Great video! I’m wondering what the best way to remove sharpie from a nylon jacket?
I would soak it for few hours, use dawn dish detergent.
@@PickRoll thank you I will definitely try that!
@@kevinwach9179 Gl
Thanks! It helped.
thanks
BUT will they work on fabric items, like jackets, lunch bags, etc? the paper on your box is smooth and shinny so much easier to clean up
Right, and I believe I say that in the video. Materials that absorb the ink are different. This was about item packages. For clothing I use oxy clean,
Help: I have a waxpack (Dark Shadows TV series Cards) with a dedication on one side - 'To Jill' - I got this about 12 years ago. I wonder if anything will work - WD-40 did not work
The writing is on the wax wrapper?.. Not sure, if it is absorbed into wax it wont come of. I use alcohol mostly.
Great thanks!
You're welcome!
Also you can mark over the permanent marker with whiteboard marker and use alcohol to wipe off....I'm a teacher done it many times
Yes thats the dry erase markers, its in his video.
I used to dry erase today. Worked beautifully. Thank you so much!!
Awesome! Glad it helped!
Do u think it will work on the midsole of some Jordan 4
@@static1539 I can never get it fully off the bottom of sneakers because the ink soaks into the rubber
Do you think removing black sharpie permanent marker off a Wilson evolution leather composite basketball would work with rubbing alcohol? Note: The sharpie has been on there for several months.
Sorry dont know
That was actually extremely helpful. That dry erase method was crazy. Would you mind sharing your methods for removing stickers?
Thanks, yea dry erase works so easy. Stickers I actually lightly wet with the alcohol then scrap off,
@@PickRoll oh wow. Ive seen people use lighter fluid and nail polish remover as well. Ill try it out!
HG you can also put oil and it will come off, or take another sticker and with the sticky part of the sticker tap the area that has the leftover sticker tap fast and gradually it will go away, but I have to admit the second tip will take a while, but it works very well and you’ll be avoiding using oil
Dry erase marker on permanent marker?!? Who knew? Awesome!
Right?! thanks
SKOL! this was helpful! thx!
Yea!! You a Viking fan also? Thanks for watching.
@@PickRoll Live in the Twin Cities 😀 Pretty new to reselling- learning a lot from yours and others videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Cool, Your welcome, glad your learning. If you ever have a question, even if not related to video, just put it on a video and I'll see it and try to help.
Thanks for the upload :)
thanks for watching
Nail polish remover worked like a charm!!!!!
awesome
Which one of these products that would remove a sharpie from a color vinyl case without damaging the vinyl?. Thanks.
Tough to say, cheap and older vinyl I d be nervous. I dont want to tell you then it get ruined, but I would try a little hand sanitizer then wipe off.
@@PickRoll Its a CD case 1990's in Orange color vinyl some wrote a name on the side..
@@sting64az Id try a tiny bit of hand sanitizer but if that material is pourus, the ink has soaked in and might be tough to remove
Which one would you recommend to try and remove the permanent marker of a DVD disc
is the ink on the label, or get it get on the silver side? Try the erasable marker on the label. If on silver readable side, im not sure cause you dont want to damage that side
Thank you!
You're welcome!
I used Colgate toothpaste and a dry washcloth on car paint. It worked easily and almost effortlessly.
Thanks
Excellent information! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Traci, appreciate you watching!
Thank ~ you! 👍🏻😊
You're welcome 😊
Did you notice if there is a smell leftover from the lighter fluid, the nail polish or the WD40 after you removed the marker?
go to 6:35 of vid, I talk about the odors, only wd40 smelt a little. thanks
What should i use to get sharpie off of the siding of my house?
I don't really know but if it vinyl I would think alcohol would work since its just on surface. If it porous and absorbed in then I don't know
Can I use the whiskey to remove on metal?
Dont know
It’s the dry erase - you’re welcome for saving the time.😛
If I only showed dry erase, since the others are known as decent options I would get lots of messages asking,"what about polish remover"... "what about wd40".. etc etc.. If I compare and show all, it saves all that. Things you, who Doesn't make videos, doesn't think about. But thanks.
hehehe, Dry Erase Pen...my newest secret weapon;0) It WORKED better and more easily than the alcohol!!!! Thank you, some more!
Awesome. Its scary cause you think your just making it worse by writing more.
no method worked for me for removing 1 month old permanent marker ink off of plastic electronic device- do you have any other recommendations?
Some materials can absorb the ink makes it hard or unable to remove.
Thanks very much
thanks
One tip is that alcohol prep pads work really well
Thanks for adding that tip. Anything with alcohol is good, including hand sanitizer. thanks
@@PickRoll yup!
Instead of using slick cardboard can you do it on silicone. Nothing is working on a silicone ornament.
Silicone is like rubber an is usually porous meaning ink gets absorbed, tough to get out/off.
Which works the best on dry wall ??
Depends on the wall paint, but I think it';; be tough, might have to just paint over mark if you have extra paint still.
What about a item that has a porous bottom they are using a permanent marker to mark on an antique pottery bot bottom
Hard to say, if its absorbed its tough to get off.
Thank you
You're welcome
Try it on plastic that is on the bottom of shoes because I tried the nail polisher remover and it didn't work that well on plastic.
bottom of shoes are usually rubber, rubber is absorbant so the ink cant just be wiped off.
The dry eraser this didn’t work at all on a Nintendo cartridge for me. However, goo gone and a magic eraser worked perfectly.
Cool. yea every surface is different, sometimes takes few tries to find what works
What gets permanent marker off the bottom of shoes that have that brown gum rubber sole? 🙁
Try Goo Gone
I see all these done on a cardboard box. What about vinyl.?
Right because this was focused to reseller who buy items at thrift store that are marked. You could try hand santizer on vinyl, should come right off
The dry eraser one fried my brain. My brain said it's not suppose to work 😆
lol right. But as you rub the marker over it you can see it coming up even before you wipe
What can I use to write permanently on plexiglass?
Sorry dont know
So... someone drew all over my cordless drill without me knowing. Also, they used a paint marker instead of a sharpie. Do you think this works with plastic as well?
Id try alcohol for that. You can just use hand sanitizer rub it on, wipe off. No guarantee but worth a shot
Try regular old Colgate tooth paste.
I it works its another good option, thanks
Hello everyone this is the magic trick to getting sharpie out of bed sheets 1. Sponge the stain with rubbing alcohol until it completely moist 2. Dab the stain with a wad of clean damp paper towels the color of the stain should be transferring to the paper towels keep repeating until the stain is gone 3. If the stain is not gone use denatured alcohol instead of rubbing alcohol apply the denatured alcohol with cotton swabs for precise application 4. Blot the stain with damp paper towels again ghe stain should be transferring to the paper towels 5. Dip a cotton ball in nail polish remover apply to the stain this should help remove the rest of the stain 6. Soak the nail polish remover with damp paper towels and launder the bed sheets as normal hope was helpful let me know if this was helpful
thanks
Thank you!
@@truepatroit8512 you're welcome did it work for you
Haven’t gotten to try it yet, but hopefully it will work. :)
@@truepatroit8512 okay please let me know how it goes
This also work on modern comic books???
Not sure, thats rather thin and also could remove the print as well.
I need to get sharpie off my shoes will this work?
bottom or leather upper? it gets absorbed by the rubber soles and wont all come off. if on the leather, it might will alcohol, but again, might have been absorbed into leather
Works magic.
does it leave a strong odor?
What will work on a clear phone case? If you see this I know I am late
Hard to say, possibly got absorbed inTo the plastic. Item called Goo Gone sometimes will work, cant be sure though
WHERE CAN YOU BUY THE ERASER PENS?
Places like walgreens, target, walmart
I tried them all on some school plastic binders and none of them took off the markers!!!???
I find the erasable marker works best, but its tough if that plastic is porous and absorbs the ink
Thank You for posting this video. It will be very helpful to me in removing Sharpie names that I wrote on the plastic cases , of the flash drives I have. Which I hope I can re-label again afterwards.
Glad it was helpful!
I have a old hat with autograph hand I need to remove them what’s the best way to do it
To remove autograph I would soak in oxi clean bath overnight. Not guaranteed but worth a try
@@PickRoll i appreciate it’s a 500 rare snapback
@@DMC-qf1sm Oh, well be careful
Alcohol and nail polish remover didn’t work on an aluminum lunch box. Dry eraser was wonderful!
awesome, thanks for info
Awww man I did this on my rubber phone case with nail polish remover but it did not work I don’t think it works on rubber
rubber is absorbant, the ink wont easily rub off
Ohhh so this is why I can never find the good isht in the dollar store EvEn on delivery days
thanks for watching.
Wow thanks, nice work
Thank you
Is it the isopropyl alcohol 70% or 99%
in the video it is 70%
My straw hat has sharpie on and couldn't remove the sharpie
straw is absorbant, the ink soaked in.
Does this work with shoes?
Shoes are tough, leather and rubber is absorbant so ink soaks in
Hi my daughter draw on my beige leather head board does not want to come off I’m very upset 😠
Yea leather absorbs the ink.
Toothpaste also works, but it’s kinda messy
thanks

They all work but his top choice is using a dry erase pen and rubbing alcohol. Saved you 12 min.
ok
how to remove permanent marks from school beg??
Its tough, if it like a canvas material it gets absorbed. try goo gone, or oxy clean. usually wont get it all out because its a pourus material.
Im a try this on my yellow teeth and see what happens
Good luck
Excited to dry erase my ex's name off of some autographed photos I have 💜
lol, you have your exs autograph on pics?? good luck
@@PickRoll They're pics and things celebrities signed and he wanted them made out to both of us. Like "Keep on Trekkin', BF & Gf, Nichelle Nichols"
@@Distorteddesignshop ahh, got it.
@@PickRoll Dude. You're my fucking saviour. I have his name off of so many things that it totally ruined by being on there. The dry erase marker does leave a little residue on photos but no one is going to be touching these when they're in frames.
@@Distorteddesignshop lol, glad it worked, sounds like your moving on.
Bug spray worked wonders
OK Cool, thanks for another option
