Glitter Markers on Upholstery

Lightly dampen paper towels with warm water to gently wipe or blot the stained area. Repeat as needed. Too much moisture may push the stain further into the fabric fibers.

SPECIAL NOTE: When possible, remove marker colors separately to avoid smearing multiple colors together. Some colors may be harder to remove, making the entire stain more difficult to remove.
