  1. Use comet with bleach or some other kind of sink scouring powder, but make sure there is bleach in it.  Sprinkle it on, covering the whole stain.  Then, take a wet cloth or wet paper towel - soaking wet, almost dripping & put it on top of the scouring powder.

    Leave it sitting on top of the stain & scouring powder, getting them both wet & keeping them both wet, for as long as you can - until right before your mom comes home.  

    Then, pick it up, wipe it off & it should be clean (or, at least, cleaner).  Of course, there is the possibility, depending on the material that the counter is made with, that this will leave a worse stain - a whitened bleached out spot that can't be fixed.

    And, of course, it might still leave a stain behind, too.  Or, even it it doesn't, you should still take responsibility for making a mistake & damaging something in the home that your parents work hard to provide for you.  Behaving responsibly, even when you make a mistake, is a way to show your parents that you are mature, that you respect them & that you can be trusted to try to do your best.  


  2. bleach?

  3. Try alchol

  4. what material?  I think I would try bleach (not just a disinfectant) or maybe a mild abrasive cleaner, depending on what the counter top is made of.  I'm afraid this is one you will probably need to get an adult's help with....straight bleach isn't really safe for a kid to be using.  If you come clean (sorry about the pun) I bet you won't get in too much trouble.

  5. bleach. thats what i use. but you might want to get your mom to do it. it ruins clothes. but it will take the stain up.

  6. If you have some Soft Scrub with bleach or a Clorox Bleach pen, apply a thick coat of that directly to the stain so that it's completely covered.  Let it sit for several minutes, and then wipe clean.  You may need to repeat this a couple of times.

  7. nail polish remver?

  8. bleach rubbing achahol uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm...

      hairspray shaving cream

  9. Cover it and tell your mom it broke and you'll fix it and go buy OXY clean!

    or if you have sandpaper sandpaper it

  10. go fast and bleech that.

  11. Domestos usually works.  Use a scrubbing cloth and really scrub until it bubbles and then leave it for about 10 minutes.  Scrub again and rinse.

  12. Try baking soda or toothpaste on your finger and rub like crazy.

    These are mild abrasives that you probably have laying around the house.


  13. rubbing alcohol, nail polish remover, or straight bleach might work. Watch your clothes around the bleach. Try a clorox bleach pen if your mom has one. Make sure the counter is white before you use bleach.  

  14. try eye makeup remover

  15. What kind of counter is it?

  16. Magic Eraser!!!  Those things do wonders!

  17. Magic Eraser or maybe 409, scrub really hard. good luck. btw your mom will most likely find out at one point!
