I bought some used games from a video store and they have written numbers on them in felt pen. Does anyone have any tips on getting it off?
Thanks

I remember using a small bit of nail polish remover on a wad of soft tissues to get black marker off of the label side of a Gamecube disc. I was actually pretty amazed at how well it cut through the ink. You can't tell it was ever there now.

Careful, nail polish remover is acetone, which can also remove the sheen off of plastics.

This question has been asked MANY times.. 2 words.. "Orange Waterless" (Google it).

Did not know that. Thanks for the heads up.

I've always used alcohol wipes. Go raid your first aid kit.
