    Permanent Marker Stain Removal from Wood Furniture To remove a permanent marker stain from wood furniture, there are a few options available. You could try WD-40, non-gel toothpaste, or possibly baby wipes. Also, I´d suggest a bit of alcohol on a white cloth or paper towel, or visiting an office supply store to get a commercial felt pen ink remover. I would also recommend trying the method you choose on an inconspicuous area of the wood first to ensure that it doesn´t damage the finish. :)

Hi! First of all try some baby wipes - honest - they really do work! It just depends on the surface. If that doesn't work, get some neat scouring cream, and VERY GENTLY, rub with a sponge scourer. Hope this helps! Best of luck!!

If your lucky. you can buff it out with a wood paste wax, such as neutral colored 'Min-Wax.' It's going to take some elbow grease. You other option is to have it completely refinished.

Toothpaste. I had accidently gotten some black pen on the table....I was sooo worried it wouldnt come off. But toothpaste took it right off. ♥

rub gently with toothpaste or vinegar diluted in water, if table is not natural wood or melamine cream cleaner or astonish will do it
