I'm curious if anyone has tried using the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers. They apparently have no chemicals and work with just water. http://www.mrclean.com/en_US/magic-eraser.do My wife says she's cleaned permanent marker off of plastic toys with the stuff. The harder the plastic, the easier it is, so she says. :-) Of course, it might end up scuffing the surface a bit by reading the description on the website above. Has anyone else tried this?

Do it by hand with a slightly damp cloth. Likely that will take off the marker. If not, then start with rubbing compound followed by polishing compound. You don’t necessarily need to use a buffing wheel or go through all the grits unless the keytop is scratched and the marker has gotten down below the surface. Then you will need to sand it flat. You can use polishing compound after 1500 grit and it will buff out easily by hand. No need to sand down to 2000 or 2500. You can easily do this all on site. > > David Love > www.davidlovepianos.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
