Permanent Marker Removal
Have you ever found permanent marker on your hardwood floors?
I certainly have.
And now you won’t need to worry if you find yourself in the same spot I did. Permanent marker removal is super easy and fast with the right tools.
Put a dab of white toothpaste on the marker.
Then rub like crazy with a damp washcloth or paper towel. (I like to use my microfiber cloth.)
And you’re done!
Be sure to pin this post, so you’ll have it when you need it!

Another thing to try is a method we use when someone has been using permanent markers on whiteboards.
Take the same permanent marker and trace the lines, immediately wiping it off. Together with the new line you will wipe off most of the other line as well. This saves a lot of scrubbing.
Be sure to wipe the line off before it is dry though! I am not sure how it works on more porous surfaces, but in smooth surfaces it works great. I advise testing (and if you do, let us know the result :)) (bah, brackets and smilies don't go together well.)
Great blog, been reading it the past few hours with much joy!
Great tip. Thanks for sharing it. I’ve pinned it to my “housekeeping” board.
I have a permanent marker stain on my oak tabletop, but it’s been there for about a year and a half. Anyone know if it works on old permanent marker stains? My guess is that it doesn’t, but I thought I’d ask anyway.
Thank you!! for the tip BLESS you!!!!!!!!!!!
I just found this on Pinterest, and am off to try it on some drawers that my 7yo attacked when he was 4 – haven’t been able to get it off since. Hoping its not too late!
I’m curious if this actually works and will give it a try. But, I have to ask, why the area of hardwood in the after picture [w/o the permanent marker] is not the same area of hardwood on the before picture [w/the permanent marker]?
Hi Laura – definitely give it a try. I hope it works for you.
As to the pictures of hardwood – I can assure you that it’s the exact same piece of floor. My kids (they won’t admit who) wrote on the floor with a red sharpie. I scrubbed it off with white toothpaste. I took pictures as I went. For real.
I have used this trick to get permanent marker out of my wood floor, coffee table, and my tv screen. (My son found the junk drawer while I was changing the baby’s diaper. Fun times.) I promise, it does work. You have to make sure it is plain white toothpaste & not the gel kind. 🙂
What about nail polish? My spouse inherited some hand made wooden tables her grandpa made and her younger niece spilled red nail polish on one of them and we are too scared to try and use something because we are worried it will damage it more. What do I do??
I’ll be dag’gone if that didn’t work like a charm. It took a little elbow grease and my index finger is a little sore. But totally worth it!
Take care while doing all that scrubbing, toothpaste is gritty and this method could remove the urethane finish and leave you with an annoying dull spot on ur floor or dining room table,(etc.) My husband and I install hardwood and laminate flooring and use Sharpies to mark the planks for cutting. We use AXE deodorant spray to remove any unwanted marks. It dissolves the marker and leaves the urethane finish untouched and very shiny.
The last photo really is slightly higher. The red mark is still faintly visible at the very bottom of the photo. It’s still pretty good….but not completely gone.
Turn the table where the sun shines on the mark. One day you will look and it will be GONE.
Great idea, Lynda. Thanks!! Unfortunately for me, the sun doesn’t get near the window in my dining room; but I am happy that others will benefit from this idea.
thank you, it worked like a charm . my son had black permanent our wood floor in several places will we made faces on pumpkins. I thought I had to get a bigger rug or get the floor guy in to help me. But all the dark heavy marks went quickly with hardly any scrubbing.
it works!! thanks so much!
Thank you for posting this tip – very helpful!
Awesome Tip! I was almost considering scratching it out and filling with a wax floor pencil. Thank god I found this first. It has been bothering me for some time now, didn’t want to get cray with it, but today was the day. Took like 1 minute tops!. Thanks again.
I tried the toothpaste tip, on my dining table. Unfortunately I was unable to get it to work for me – believe me, I tried very hard with lots of elbow grease included. I wonder if it was because it wasn’t a new mark??
Does anyone know if this works on finished surfaces or not? My in laws gave us their oak table and chair set that they got as a wedding gift in 78. My 2 year old decides she was going to have arts and crafts time on it with permanent marker.
Maybe you need to take a closer look at the flooring…. it is obviously the same flooring and the same spot. Wondering why you would ask this?
Great tip from an expert! Thanks. I wonder what is in Axe that makes it come off…and men spray that on themselves, scary!
Thank you! My one year old got into a permanent marker the other day when my husband was home alone with them. I panicked when I got home because I was afraid it would never come out due to being left to dry (and make itself at home on our wood floors!). This worked wonderfully! Quick, easy and the floor looks great 🙂 🙂 Thank you, thank you!
You a dry erase marker on top of permanent one & it comes right off too
nice post.thanks for sharing.i like it
Have you tried to scrape it off with a hard plastic spatula, or one of those plastic pot scrapers?
My husband was watching the kids and make the mistake of giving them markers to draw with on the floor. I can’t wait to try toothpaste, who knew it could be so easy!
Thank you sooooo much! My little daughter just drew some nice doodles on the floor with a permanent marker and I had to google some advice on how to get rid of the stains. Your advice was the first one I looked up!!!
Anyone know how to get permanent marker (Sharpie) out of a couch? All I did was go the bathroom and my two year old drew on the couch. When I took it from her she told me she only had to make one more dot. Just one. Ah, no.
My business is incredibly inspired as well as your way with words-at all as well as together with the design and style in your blog site. Is this fact the given matter or even does one alter this oneself? No matter what be in the good excellent crafting, it can be rare to search a great site like this one right now.
Stain from permanent markers are often very difficult to remove.That seems like an easy tip from cleaning experts.The kids often play with marker pens and make he room dirty.Any ways thanks for that tip!Great blog!
I just tried this on a couple of areas where my 6 year old was writing with a sharpie on paper on the floor. It came right up with toothpaste! Thanks for the tip.
You just saved a very expensive dining room table! I’ve never replied to a website like this but I had to say thank you! I was shocked at how well this worked. 🙂
Just tried this on fresh sharpie, and it took it right off the floors. Thanks!
Not to worry about the toothpaste being too abrasive for your teeth. Luthiers (violin makers) use a very small amount of toothpaste along with some other mystical ingredients to clean even the most expensive violins. I’ve seen a $1 million dollar violin that I know was cleaned using a toothpaste mixture. Your teeth are worth that, right?
LIFESAVER!!!!! Amazing.
i have good results on some surfaces with rubbing alcohol, like plastic file folders and white boards for example, toothpaste should not be used on white boards.

The use of these skins is also controversial. This summer, members of the animal rights group PETA went undercover at an ‘alligator factory’ that provides skins for Hermes, exposing that the creatures were kept in terrible conditions.
The use of these crocodile skins has also sparked controversy. This summer, several members of the animal rights protection organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) sneaked into a “alligator factory” that provides crocodile skins for Hermès as undercover agents, exposing the terrible environment in which these crocodiles live.
According to sources, starting from February 18, Louis Vuitton bag for pickwomenbag.com Outlet will increase the price of global products. As soon as the news came out, not only did it not meet the cold, but it ignited the enthusiasm for consumption in the Chinese market. A Beijing netizen complained that buying a bag looks like going to a market. “The popular models have been out of stock for a long time, and it takes an hour to queue in front of the Louis Vuitton bag for pickwomenbag.com Outlet door to enter the store.”
Due to rising manufacturing and shipping costs, luxuryThe brand Louis Vuitton bag for pickwomenbag.com (Louis Vuitton bag for pickwomenbag.com Outlet) started a price increase globally on February 16. This is the fifth time Louis Vuitton bag for pickwomenbag.com Outlet has raised prices in the past year.
More than a hundred years ago, Louis Vuitton bag for pickwomenbag.com, who came from a small village, got a job: folding clothes for the queen of Napoleon III and packing them into suitcases so that the queen could travel around Europe. However, the queen’s clothes are too much, stuffed into the box, and it is easy to become crumpled after the bumpy journey of the long steam train.
Of course, the French design house is hardly the only one to offer exclusive accessories inaccessible to the masses – or even most of the upper class, for that matter.

Let’s take a look at the appearance of Jordan Delta 3. This time, a high-top version and a low-top version are launched. The upper of the high-top version is more complicated, and the whole gives a feeling of functional wind. The upper is made of mono yarn. There is a checkered pattern, and there are some reinforcement designs on the upper. The neckline position feels independent, and the shoelaces are conventionally designed.
