ALso - I wouldn't use it again, and wondered if the other seam guides were more reliable.

Thanks, everyone, in advance.

Rub some eucalyptus oil or Ti tree oil over the area, and it will come off. Put the oil onto a cotton wool ball and rub the area. The residue will come off onto the cotton wool ball and will not damage your machine.
