They are all good, I usually have all these on hand

Acetone

Methyl Hydrate

Methyl Chloride

Lacquer thinner

Coating stripper (DuPont)

Goof off

Tooth paste mixed with baking soda

Gasoline

 

I tried so many things I don’t even know anymore but I must have 50 products on one shelf just for that

 

And it really depends on the marker and the surface

Oh yeah and if it’s a Sharpie use rubbing alcohol

You wil need to use  a stong solvent. I would try going to where they sell paint and find a heavy duty solvent which would be a paint remover.  You can use flour as a poultice

My son decided it would be a good idea to draw something on a friends honed marble floor, magic marker which he thought was erasable ink. I have only made one attempt, lacquer thinner and paper towel poultice. Not much difference. I am still trying to source materials here in Australia, not easy. Help me out here Fred! Is a jar of commercially available poultice any better than a home remedy. What should I try next. I think I could get DE easy enough.
