How to Clean Permanent Marker



So my son loves permanent markers!  I don't know why and I hate it!!  He loves how they are perfectly black,  I guess.  He takes Art Classes and is very serious about his art.  

Anyway, I was walking up my stairs and found this.

Marker all over the steps!


It looked pretty fresh still, which I was hoping was a good thing!



So what did I do??  

Grab my camera to show you, lol!  

I wasn't sure if I could get it out but I thought, "Hey, if this really works, women will go nuts over it!!" LOL  

Am I right??  

I know us women love finding new cleaning secrets. Don't we???  


I grabbed my go-to organic cleaner and heavy duty cleaning brush!


I put my cleaning concentrate on the carpet in full strength, let it sit, and then scrubbed!!


TaDA!!! 


I was shocked!!

 I didn't actually think it would work but it did and surprising very quickly!

  4. Just found spots of black sharpie from my son....thank God I saw this! It had been setting for a while so it wasn't fresh.....pulled out my Basic H.....low and behold it came out!!!!!!! I figured while I had it out I would hit a few other spots in my house. I had a spot in my family room probably from when my son was two (he's almost 6)..he fought me taking amoxicillan. That pink stuff I just couldn't get out of the carpet and the couple of spots turned black in my beige berber. Now, mind you, I have had that carpet cleaned about 5 times professionally (high traffic area)...those spots never came out until I used the Basic H today. CRAZY! Thanks a heap!

  5. I’m sure men would appreciate this cleaning secret as well, especially when you have kids – ‘carpet artists’ as they like to call themselves – at home. :D For this stain, my wife usually uses non-oily hairspray. Just let it sit in the carpet for about half an hour then wipe with a damp sponge. So far, it works, but this organic concentrate definitely would be tried! Thanks! -->Giovanni
