Also removes permanent marker from white boards.
My mom had pen marks on the outside of her purse (not leather, but prolly pleather) and I used some to take the pen marks off. Outside of that I hardly ever use it or think about it so I will be interested in seeing what others use it for. Good tips Leah, thank you

Pure acetone ( not no acetone polish remover) removes Sharpie ( permanent marker) from clothing. My husband put an uncapped Sharpie in his pants pocket, realized it when he noticed the large black spot on his tan pants. Accepting they were already ruined, I scrunched up paper towels and put them on the underside of the pants and poured the acetone on the stain..... continued to blot and after some perseverance, spot gone!
