    I am always so afraid of marking the top with anything other than chalk and sometimes even that scares me.
    I will be anxious to hear how this all works out.

    I saw from your possible address that you could be in a hot climate.I live in Arizona and I have found that these washable pens will set rather firmly if left in a hot car . So if I am travelling by car I take it with me when I leave the air conditioned car.THis has saved me many a headache.

    I have successfully used 2 parts of hydrogen peroxide to 1 part Dawn dishwashing detergent to remove marks from pens. I use a soft toothbrush to apply.

    I'm so sorry this happened! How heart-breaking, especially since it is a gift for your friend. I hope some (at least one) of the suggestions work!

    I use a old tooth brush to scrub the lines off with warm water and use oxyclean Laundry soap.
