izzymo asked:
I gave my 2 year old crayons that I thought would wipe off of the bath tub (they are the crayons that come with a dry erase activity mat), and now nothing will take it off. I’ve tried foaming bathtub cleaner, bleach, 409, sos pads, WD-40 and even an organic carpet cleaner (I was desperate). Does anyone know of a magic formula for getting something like that off? The tub we have must be extremely porous because it’s as if I let her draw with permanent marker. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Mr. Clean Magic eraser
Have you tried a Mr. Clean Eraser? Those things are da bomb!
One took sharpie off of a painted wall! 
Have you tried the Mr Clean Magic Eraser? I think they are the best for getting things off. Or the bleach pen. Those are the two things I could think of. Good luck!
Try Mr.Clean Magic Erasers….They are MicroFiber and they can get into the porous surfaces and cleans them really well.
I have 4 words for you…. Mr. Clean Magic Eraser!
have you tried mr. clean magic eraser?? i have a 2 yr old who does that and thats all i know that works for crayons!~
Use Goof-Off or Goo Be Gone.
So you want a majic formila to take that nasty craon off your tub, Yeah I know of one.
It’s called Majic Erasser, by Mr. Clean.
It works just like it says too, use it like an erasser, then just blow the gunk off after wards.
It works on just about everything, and trust me it works great on bath tubs too.
Try rubbing alcohol. We’ve used this with dry erase markers before and it removed stubborn marks. Good luck.
If it isn’t a plastic or a meltable surface you can try an iron, no steam, and a brown paper bag. You put the brown paper bag over the crayon and apply the iron for a couple of seconds at a time. Rotate the paper bag so you are re-Applying the crayon you are melting off. This also work with candle wax and carpet
mister clean majic erasors are amazing. I have a 3 year old that loves to color on everything except the paper i give him, so I know how you feel. They should do the job.
the magic erasers work miracles!! I have used them to get crayon and pen, etc off walls and such!!
I love those little things!!
Walmart I think has thier own generic version for a fraction of the cost too i think.
Bar Keeper’s Friend will get it off. It is sort of like comet only much better. It comes in a gold container like comet. Make a nice paste and let it sit on the spot for a little bit. then get a scrubber and scrub it away. That stuff cleans everything.
