I have tried Google but not really having any luck. DS (2) decided to pen mark poor DC1's donkeys face.

Vinegar and bicarbonate? Often does the trick. Sorry... Made me chuckle!

Flash magic eraser. Gets Biro off walls etc so might work on donkeys?

CheshireDing · 09/04/2016 22:03

Fab thank you will try these suggestions tomorrow.

Second flash magic erasers, they are fab.

MrsPigling · 09/04/2016 22:51

assume you've tried baby wipes already?

those eraser things are fab though :)

Maybe WD40?

TheSpottedZebra · 09/04/2016 23:05

Wd40 or hairspray.

Magic eraser! They are amazing.

It's not often you see a question asked on Mumsnet which has never been asked before, but I think you've managed it Smile

If all else fails try rubbing alcohol. It's great at getting marks off

Stain Devils - have the answer to virtual every stain 😀

I had to open this thread just to see if I could find out why someone should have an inflatable donkey with pen marks on it. It's been niggling at me all day. Grin

Hairspray? I've used it successfully to get pen marks off leather before.

CheshireDing · 10/04/2016 21:28

Ha ha thank you everyone, never crossed my mind that it sounded like an odd request but in hindsight I can see it does Grin (think I have just got used to seeing said donkey on the dining table for the last 2 weeks.

Will be on to scrubbing it's pink rubbery face tomorrow :)

I think we need a pic of said Donkey?

If it's proper biro then surgical spirit will get it off. Discovered this when my health visitor accidentally drew on my new sofa. 'Ooh' she said 'this looks new, when did you get it?'. 'It was delivered about an hour ago' I replied Angry

BatteryOperatedBoyfriend · 10/04/2016 22:15

We used to have an inflatable donkey (kind of a donkey shaped space hopper?) and ours had biro all over it too.

Anything pertaining to inflatable donkeys belongs in the sex topic.
