Help! How can I remove a permanent marker smudge from the forehead? Looks like a bruise. :-(

Acne treatment (highest percent benzoyl peroxide you can find) applied carefully to just the "bruise" and then set in the sun. I did this with my daughter's doll and it worked within a few hours for ball point pen and the next day for permanent ink marker (yes, she is a repeat offender). You can bleach the doll that way if you leave it too long so check periodically. You can always repeat. I found the sun in combination to help a great deal.

Get some ache treatment from Walmart or wherever you shop. Apply to spot and leave on for several days. It will dry and be a little hard to,remove but if left for a week or two, then rinsed off, you'll,notice a big improvement. If it doesn't work completely, rinse , dry, repeat.

You can also try alcohol or nail polish remover. I've had success getting permanent marker off other surfaces (though not a doll but that might work, too) with these things in the past.

I would try some windex or some dish cleaner--- maybe even some eyeglass cleaner. Hope this helps!

I would agree with the previous comment. You can dilute it with fractionated coconut oil--as simple as dip one end of a Q-tip in the coconut oil, add a drop of oregano oil, and apply to tag. Probably cover with a bandage. It takes time but works. It will leave a dark spot where the tag was. The tag may reappear. If so, repeat the procedure.

i used a piece of an old towel and it is very easy. you can use any old cloth no tools needed. just put the liquid on cloth and rub the bare spots.

Same problem. Some people won't care, but I want crystal-clear windows on the world. Even finger-scrubbing these glasses with grease-cutting dishwashing detergent and rinsing under very hot water won't remove all the smudges (and this ALWAYS makes my other eyeglasses and sunglasses impeccably spotless). It's like there is some sort of fine grease layer that even aggressive cleaning won't remove entirely, and what remains just moves around the surface. It may be some chemical inside the lens that is leaching out.

Hi, Michelle. I am NOT a doctor nor medical professional of any kind. I am simply sharing my experiences with skin tags. I have found two things that removed my skin tags. One is to use an item for freezing warts. The trick is to grab the skin tag by it's end and gently stretch it away from the skin. At the narrowest point of the stretch, apply the freezing. I used two doses, and it worked, the tag fell off a few days later. It left behind a very small, minor discoloration. The other method is to again gently stretch the tag away from the skin and have someone else tie a thin string (or a thread) around it at it's narrowest part (double or triple knot it). They must tie it quite tightly or it won't work (this can be tricky). THIS WILL HURT for a few minutes. After a few days the tag turns black and falls off. Only once did this method leave behind a small "spot." Good luck!

You can remove it with a putty knife or even a kitchen knife. Get it started at a corner and it just peels off. Easy. No dMage.

Any stainless steel polish will take those spots off. "Been there done that"..

I have the same issue. I will clean my with soap and hot water every couple of days. And about once a month, I will let it soak in hot soapy water and give it a good scrub to get the stains out. Most of it does come off but its hard to get it out of the tiny corners

Hi Kathleen, Thanks for the question. If there are soiled spots or finger prints use a foam cleaner or fabric cleaner like Woolite or scotch guard, taking a damp sponge clean gently from side to side, not up and down. Be careful not to crush or crease the shade. Also, if it's minor cleaning, a hand-held vacuum should be useful, as well as regular dusting. This will help ensure long-lasting cleanliness of the fabric. We hope this helps Kathleen!

I would try rubbing alcohol. We owned a plating shop years ago and I would spray rubbing alcohol on the finished product to remove spots. I also hear that baby oil works too, haven't tried it. Good luck.

I haven't done it, but you might try carefully scraping it off with an exacto knife and/or maybe some acetone. Good luck.

None. Take a WET rag, hydrogen peroxide, and an iron. YouTube it. 1. Pour the peroxide into stain. 2. Put wet rag over 3. Put iron on high WITH STEAM on top of rag (just set it) for 10-30 seconds 4. Blot off- works on tons of stuff! Better for you than simple green nasty stuff too, and works better too!

I just started using it and I now have little pimples all over my forehead. Now I have to figure out which cream caused that. I am not happy.

I can't clean it completely. Eventually I was able to rub the sticky off but it left a smudge mark :(

Didn't apply too much; problem is that you didn't remove it all. The finish should be smooth as silk and super bright. This is a CLEANER and a polish. It takes a lot of work to remove it all. Use a very soft cloth, but you will need to rub hard, and concentrate on one small area at a time. Also, don't let it get wet for 24 hours; it has to "cure". All worth it, though.
