marher (highlighter) pen on baby born - is it possible to remove?

[ernest]

Instructions say basically just wipe with damp cloth.

Really pissed off, as the felt tips scribbles clearly water soluble and just rinced off, but poor, brand new Pete is left with a huge purple permanent scribble on his forehead. Any ideas apart from murdering ds3, which I suppose would be a slight over reaction....

sone neat Ciff cream on a cloth rubbed in then wiped off with a damp cloth should do the trick.
Or a Pampers wipe - they are brill at getting everything off anything - bit worrying about how they clean the skin though!!!

If the doll is made of that vinyl stuff then it probo won't come off.
I used to restore vintage toys like 80's My Little Ponies that were made of vinyl-ish doll stuff and highlighter was a real problem.

luciemule, I thought of that, but it's quite abrasive and terrified of damaging poor Pete, he's only a Christmas 'baby' so we've only had him 5 minutes, instructions say avoid anything evil.

I think my choice is living with purple or damage
