How do I remove a permanent marker stain
The successful removal of ink stains differs from case to case because of the
many types of fabrics, colors, inks and time elapsed before stain removal. We
cannot guarantee stain removal since many variables can be involved. Testing
first is always recommended as well as following both the stain remover and
clothing manufacturer’s instructions. Following these steps should result in
partial or complete removal. General Rules:
Treat stains as soon as possible. Fresh stains can be removed more easily than
old ones. Check manufacturer’s labels as to fabric content and any special
instructions. Always test stain removal solution first on a hidden part of the
article or on swatch of fabric taken from seam allowance to ensure no color
loss or damage will occur. Where possible, lay the stained article face down
on paper towels or clean white cloth and apply stain removal solution to the
underside of stain so that stain can be removed from the surface instead of
pushing it through the fabric. Replace towels or cloth as they absorb stain to
prevent stain transfer. If enlisting the aid of a professional laundry or dry
cleaner, be sure to indicate what the stain is and the type of fabric. Do not
iron stained garments or put in dryer as this may set stains.
What makes a marker permanent
A marker can be classified as a permanent marker if it:
- Adheres to most surfaces and/or is water resistant.
- Uses dyes or pigments
- The dyes or pigments used, which give the ink color (colorants), determine how well a marking will resist fading and the combination of ingredients used in the ink formulation gives the ink permanent properties.
How long does a permanent market last
We do not have a mathematical formula to figure how long a permanent marker will “last.” With outdoor exposure on a nonporous surface, the marks from a dye base marker will be gone in perhaps three to four months. With indoor exposure on a porous surface, like artist canvas or paper, we would expect marks from a dye-based marker to last several years. Resins or surfactants give the ink the ability to adhere to various surfaces. Thus, we have markers for non-porous and glossy surfaces, markers for oily or wet surfaces and markers that can withstand extreme heat
Can I use sharpie markers for marking on glass, baking, or ceramic dishware?
While Sharpie markers are AP-certified and non-toxic, we do not recommend using them on areas of items that may come in contact with food or the mouth. Sharpie has not been tested as an oven proof product and should not be used anywhere where a consumer could possibly ingest the ink. Sharpie markers are only recommended for use on ceramic or glassware when the product is being used for decorative or display purposes.
