I'm not too sure but I don't think it's a sharpie. It's a purple ink and looks like it's just a regular felt tip

I've actually tried the nail varnish remover... Thanks for the suggestion though
Is there anything else that anyone has used with success?

I have noticed for months you don't read any of the other post in any threads you post in. If I were a Mod I think I would see you to the door. Bro you've been here for not only 3 weeks. How would you know my posts from months ago? And who are you to sit and decide who gets booted. There is mods and admins for a reason. No one mentioned acetone yet so I suggested it. I was just helping the op out geez. |

Nail polish remover contains acetone, along with other products. However, it's not straight up acetone. I rest my case. |

Goof-off is my remover of choice for taking paint off of figs. Pretty strong stuff, may give that a try. Marker/pen may be a b!tch if it has bleed into the plastic.

Based on your description it does sound like sharpie, my conclusion is that figure is a wrap. Replace the specific area if possible. Might I ask what figure and area is damaged?
