Removing permanent marker pen from laminate flooring

As those of you with children may have experienced, they may manage to get hold of a permanent marker pen (or two, or perhaps three or more...) and scribble where they shouldn't!

My almost-two-year-old kindly re-decorated our laminate flooring with permanent marker, but I've successfully removed it entirely with nail polish remover! Just gave the floor a quick wipe over afterwards with a damp cloth to make sure any remaining nail polish remover isn't left hanging about.

GREAT tip Bokeh, thank you!!

I should really try nail polish remover on the last remaining bit of NAIL POLISH that is still on my laminate- I only ever spot it at the wrong times then forget about it again- only to spot it again when I cant deal with it LOL

Might help to know for future now the 2 year old is getting into colouring that WD 40 gets crayon off painted walls!!
