Hi Sarah - have you tried bleach? Put some on a q-tip and try rubbing it off. Otherwise scrubb off paint and biro and repaint!

Flash erasers are pretty good, if used gently.

Hairspray will get it off, but it will take off a bit of paint too, not usually enough to notice though.

Have you tried a babywipe?

white toothpaste works, but may take a smidgeon of paint off
