What is a good solvent to remove permanent marker on plastic?
Years ago, I marked my name on the back of a workman's bump
cap. To my disapointment, the ink got into the plastic, and totally refused to completely wipe out. Other than alcohol or gasoline, the next tries might be mineral spirits paint thinner, or finger nail polish remover. Please try a small bit on a cotton swab, so you don't melt the whole plastic item by accident. Outdoors, fresh air, not while smoking, not while using hair dryer in bath tub, operating bulldozer with guards removed, or cutting electrical cords with hedge trimmer. Usual safety rules apply. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. "Judy Zappacosta" wrote in message ...

You could also try bleach. |

What's a good solvent to remove permanent marker on outdoor plastic? The problem is that though it looks so smooth, uPVC is actually very porous. The ink has got right into the plastic.

One crafty trick if all else fails is to rub some paint of a similar colour into the plastic with a rag. I would give your kids water based pens in future! :-) |

Before you try harsher chemicals, make a paste with baking soda and a high concentration (70%-90%) isopropyl/rubbing alcohol and scrub the plastic with this paste. |

What's a good solvent to remove permanent marker on outdoor plastic? What part of "permanent marker" do you find confusing? It's highly unlikely that any solvent will remove permanent marker from plastic without damaging the plastic. You might try naphtha (lighter fluid), but if gasoline didn't work, that probably won't either. Acetone or lacquer thinner may remove the marks, but they're almost sure to harm the plastic as well. |

What's a good solvent to remove permanent marker on outdoor plastic? I actually come across this situation fairly often at work (customers marking product with Sharpie and then finding out that they are NFG and need warranty replacements, then I need to clean them so we get credit from supplier who will not accept parts with any writing/ marking on them) and what i've found to work the best is getting the marker wet with isopropyl alcohol and then scrubbing of what doesn't come off with alcohol alone with one of those white plastic draftsman's erasers (the ones that are little white rectangles about the size of a typical Pink Pearl, but pure white plastic. Staedtler is the brand name that comes to mind, but there's likely a generic knockoff available at Staples, Office Depot, etc. A Pink Pearl might work, but I can only recommend the white ones, because that's what I have in my desk drawer.) I have run across parts that will not come clean by anything I've tried, I guess there must be some new kind of really, really permanent marker out there (but it's rare that I get those) I just send 'em back and hope that we get credit for them, not worth my time to try anything more involved to clean up a $40 part. nate |

What's a good solvent to remove permanent marker on outdoor plastic? If it's a Sharpie, they use an alcohol-based carrier. Buy a quart of denatured ethanol at the paint store to remove it. If it's another brand of permanent marker, you're on your own. Jon |

I'll try (I have plenty of that handy); but I thought bleach was an oxidizer, not a solvent. Worth a try though ... Yes. The concern is that solvent in the marker plasticized the surface allowing the dye to penetrate. Would make it difficult to remove with solvent which is why I suggest bleach to de-colorize. If carbon black, may be impossible to remove except by buffing it out. Just yesterday, I was showing my wife how to remove stains from a plastic cutting board with bleach as nothing she had tried was working. Works best by soaking or leaving wet for a while. |

The OP doesn't say what kind of plastic it is, but polyethylene is what milk jugs and Rubbermaid trash cans are made from. Do a test spot, first. Acetone can be purchased in small cans like paint thinner at most hardware stores. nb IF it's polyethelene he's OK. If it's ABS he's toast - and if it's anything else he's gambling. |
