How To Remove Coloured Marker Stains
Make sure the “permanent” in the permanent marker doesn’t apply to marks left on your clothes with these tricks on how to remove permanent marker from clothes.
Try these tips for getting your garment back to its original, marker-free glory.
Remove Excess
Brush the excess stain off the surface of the fabric. Rinse in water to dilute the stain.
Pour and Pre-treat
Pour Tide HE Turbo Clean Liquid directly onto the coloured marker stain. Make sure you completely cover it and let set for 5 minutes. Pour from either the bottle or the cap.
Dose
You can also use the cap to ensure you use the right amount of detergent. Just fill it with the correct dose of detergent, and pour it into the detergent dispenser if you have an HE machine, or directly into the drum before loading the clothes if you have a non-HE machine.

Load
Without rinsing off the detergent, place the garment into the washer with other items. Leaving the detergent on the stain will give your wash that extra boost of cleaning power.
Wash
Wash on the usual cycle, on the hottest wash temperature indicated. Always check the instructions on the garment’s care label.
