Question

How do I get out blue permanent marker from a canvas cloth baby shoe?

Answer 1

I would try rubbing alcohol, nail polish remover or even hair spray. All of them break down the pigment in permanent marker, and non of them are greasy which may cause another stain. If they are white shoes, try applying straight bleach to the stain using a cloth or small brush. After applying the bleach be sure to rinse the shoe thoroughly. Any bleach left behind may irritate baby's skin, or bleach any other clothing they touch.

Answer 2

Use WD40 or something similar to spray on the shoe let it soak in and then blot with a clean white rag.  This will take several applications.  When you have most of the ink removed go ahead and wash the shoe in the washer but do not put in the dryer as heat will permanently set the stain.  If it is a white shoe you can also try hydrogen peroxide, but I'm not sure that it works on permanent ink.

Answer 3

Sorry but I would dye the shoes dark blue.
