Show me another »How do u remove permanent marker stains off adidas sport shoes?
I recently bought a pair of WHITE adidas sports shoes and i coloured it with a black permanent (Ya, i know, sounds stupid but thats not the point). Anyway, it would be really helpful if you can suggest a few ideas as to how i might be able to remove these stains. It says that it is made of synthetic leather.
Additional Details
I tried using alcohol, but there are grey stains left and its quite obvious. I really want to get rid of the stain, i've tried hair spray and perfume, but none of them worked. Is there anything else u can suggest??? PLEASE, HELP ME!!!

Try an older type of hair spray, something cheap, like our grandmothers used to buy. I've tried the newer hairsprays and they don't work. My grandma had some at the under her sink and I tried it when it is still wet and it took all the permanent marker off at once.
