    Hello.

    You need a whiteboard marker (dry-erase) to color over the permanent marker line precisely, the solvents in the erasable marker will encapsulate and dissolve the permanent ink, wipe immediately with a microfiber cloth.

    Hello,

    70% alcohol diluted with water in equal parts, rub gently with a cotton pad.

      Hello,

      Diluting 70° alcohol by half roughly yields 35° (it's more complicated because the volume of alcohol depends on the temperature; technically you would need to weigh it).

      In France there is no 70° alcohol unless modified (with camphor and tartrazine to prevent drinking it and also to prevent using it on a screen...).

      The 60° alcohol, often marketed for pediatric use, usually follows the same fate by being colored blue.

      Therefore, it is better to start from 90° alcohol diluted roughly to one third when you can find it (it is taxed by the state as drinking alcohol, which greatly increases its price and reduces its availability).

        Hello again,

        In my opinion, even pure alcohol in the short term wouldn’t damage a plastic screen, but to be safer, I add water (By principle, when a stain won’t come off with water alone).
