I have a bottle of Sew Clean. Years ago I took a LA class from Pam Clark and she recommended it to remove marks like blue Pounce chalk that tends to not come out of some light colored fabrics. It does recommend you blot with water after use or wash the item by hand or machine.
The bottle does not claim to remove Sharpie or permanent marker but here is what it does say: "Removes ball point pen ink, pencil & crayon marks, lipstick & make-up, fingerprints, blood, grass stains, oil & grease, rust stains, coffee & soft drinks, chewing gum and a lot more." Says it's all natural using citrus extract but doesn't list any other ingredients.
It's sold by Bear Thread Designs (281) 462-0661. That's all the manufacturing info on it.
I guess I wasn't that impressed with it because I know I've had the bottle at least 5 years and it feels like I hardly used any at all. I do remember using it to remove some sewing machine oil that had gotten on a quilt and that worked but then I found out that Dawn dish soap works for that so...
I will try it on a sample with blue marker and let you know what happens.
