    You can remove sharpie by writing over it with a dry-erase marker and then removinging by rubbing it.

    You call usually also use isopropyl alcohol, but you may remove more than you intended.

    So dry-erase first and then go nuclear with iso if the marker didn’t work.

      Drawing over it again with the same sharpie works too if you wipe it quick.

      Found this out in school when someone wrote some less than acceptable words on the board in permanent marker. The teacher scribbled over it with drywipes, waited a few seconds and wiped it away.

      They said it was because essentially drywipe marker is a permanent marker with solvents.

      In the same vein as isopropyl alcohol, hand sanitizer works too. And more people are carrying that now since covid.
