Watching with interest. We have a couple of DS1s tops ruined by his "magic pen". Have had to tell him it doesn't work any more as he can't help but get it on his clothes.

you can't sorry

my older two have used these pens at school - they have personal whiteboards in class, every child has one of these pens. Every school sweatshirt we have has this pen on it none of the Mums at school has ever managed to wash the pen out, despite trying every stain remover on the market

sorry

There's practically no ink that couldn't be easily removed with alcohol gel for hands. (as long as you have not washed the item in hot water already)

Nope, you cannot get it out!! Our school have individual white boards and dry wipe pens for every pupil, and the uniform consists of white polo shirts. By the end of hte school year most children resemble dalmations

Thought as much. Thanks.

It was a Boden sweat shirt- the gorgeous Holey Cow one(we only have a couple)was about to go in the e-bay pile to earn it's keep.

Lesson learnt Boden t-shirts and dry wipe don't mix!!!!!!
