So my 2 year old decided that our beige couch needed some color,so she scribbled purple sharpie on one of the cushions. Our couch is microsuede. I really need to get the stain out because we're sellling our couch and the lady is supposed to come pick it up Friday. Eeeekkk!!!! Please help!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Had to do 2 applications of hairspray and used a damp cloth with dawn on it to scrub it first and then finished it with a mr.clean sponge. But,it's all good now. Thanks for the quick tips,ladies!!!!

Have you tried anything yet? Dawn dish soap might help. Hairspray?

Can you color the whole thing purple quickly? :)

I used a damp magic eraser on my microsuede and it worked wonders.

sol-u-mel by Melaleuca! pour on cloth and blot first, then wipe with saturated cloth.

Rub hand sanitizer on it and wipe it off. My daughter used an ink pen on ours a few years ago and it worked perfectly.
