How do u remove permanent marker stains off adidas sport shoes?

Question

I recently bought a pair of WHITE adidas sports shoes and i coloured it with a black permanent (Ya, i know, sounds stupid but thats not the point). Anyway, it would be really helpful if you can suggest a few ideas as to how i might be able to remove these stains. It says that it is made of synthetic leather.

I tried using alcohol, but there are grey stains left and its quite obvious. I really want to get rid of the stain, i've tried hair spray and perfume, but none of them worked. Is there anything else u can suggest??? PLEASE, HELP ME!!!

Answer 1

Try an older type of hair spray, something cheap, like our grandmothers used to buy. I've tried the newer hairsprays and they don't work. My grandma had some at the under her sink and I tried it when it is still wet and it took all the permanent marker off at once.

Answer 2

Use a wet magic eraser. I don't know if using the alcohol made the chances of removing it worse.

Answer 3

Did u colour them all over cus if not try bleach or nail varnish remover

Answer 4

Use a little nail polish remover. Non-Acetone so as you won't tear up the leather.

Answer 5

try Methylated Spirits , with a small cotton bud, rub gently ,it should come out after a couple of goes, then rinse with cold water

Answer 6

Try a product called MEAN GREEN... if that doesn't work, hairspray might get it off... Otherwise, bleach em...

Answer 7

try the bleach pens that I think clorox has out.


Maybe it isn't clorox, but those pens work really well.

Answer 8

Magic eraser?!?!

goodluck!

Answer 9

throwing them away.
