    Our dining table is pure white (put by our landlord) and my son has made beautiful sketches with red pen. I tried my normal things, nothing seems to work.

    Any ideas please?

    I dont know what surface material yours is. In a laminated board top can wipe off with glass cleaner or nail polish remover.

    It is wooden table, I do not think it is a laminated boarding, does not look so.

    I tried the glass cleanser did not work.

    I will try nail polish remover next (Though have to buy one ;-))

    Hi,
    As this is wodden, try rubbing it with some colgate paste (not gel) and leave it dry. After 5 mins, rub it off with cloth damped with warm water. I use this t remove pencil and pen marks from walls painted with distemper. This also works on pen marks on car/ fridge etc....

    Good luck :thumbsup
