how to get black sharpie marker off a jersey?

[ctcsoft]

is there anyway to get black sharpie off a jersey?

i got it autographed at a football game but two marks were accidently left on the jersey ( not by the actual signature )

For those interested its a Santana Moss Miami Hurricanes jersey. Got it signed by him last weekend at the Skins/Rams game.

What jersey? What player?

 

[Kroz]

Sugar Soap!

 

[Baked]

Just leave the marks on, they show authenticity.

 

[darkxshade]

gasoline and a match should do the trick.

 

[OutHouse]

you cant. sharpie = forever on cloth

 

[sniperruff]

try acetone

 

[Carbo]

Scissor and/or razor blade and/or battery acid.

 

[MikeyIs4Dcats]

WD40 would possibly, but not sure how it would leave the jersey since you can't wash it.

:thumbsup:

 

[ctcsoft]

anyone else know how?

i don't wanna try any dangerous chemicals which might damage the jersey.

 

[MisterJackson]

Dry Erase markers, I learned that here as a trick to remove Sharpie from a CD. Don't know how well it will work on cloth though.

leave it on, you'll just make it 100 times worse

I was @ that game too... but I don't do autographs. I used to get them at the Rams training camp(Macomb, IL is my hometown) but then I didn't know what to do with them after I got them. Now I just don't worry about it.

lacquer thinner would eventually get it out, but if there's any synthetic fabric in the jersey, it'd eat that too. Plus it might be tough to spot clean without damaging the sharpie that you don't want to remove. I think Ladies Man has the right answer.

 

[Perknose]

Just rub a sony copy protected CD on the sharpie marks.

I feel sorry for you. Nothing here but the university and WalMart.

I only really wanted the auto because he is a great receiver and star player. Plus its his signature on his college jersey. I just collect personal autograph stuff. i don't sell it afterwards.

Sharpie fine point Permanent Marker (not sure what Permanent means).

It won't help on cloth.

 

[StevenYoo]

in my experience with sharpie and cloth, rubbing alcohol works. also try nail polish remover (acetone).

but i tried those two solvents on white cotton.

if you're using a colored synthetic, be careful.
