Mr Clean Magic Eraser will remove ball point pen, crayon and scuff marks from doors and walls.

As a cleaning business with many holiday homes, we often see marks on walls and doors when cleaning. Some of these are wear and tear hand marks, or accidental scuff marks from suitcases but others are deliberate marks from ball point pens and crayons.

Until we discovered Mr Clean Magic Eraser we used many different methods to clean walls and doors. Now all the cleaners keep the Eraser in their kit as it is a powerful cleaning tool that can clean more than walls and doors.

Ball point pen, scuffs marks, mould and crayons all come off best with ‘Mr Magic Eraser’ just damp the sponge and wipe the mark away. Mr Magic Eraser works well on most painted walls, however always test a small spot first to ensure that paint is not rubbed away when you use the eraser. Not all paint is washable!

Methods we used prior to Mr Magic Eraser are:

For a pencil mark or drawing the easiest way to get the mark off the wall is to use an eraser.

Liquid sugar soap is the best for washing down walls with lots of hand marks on. If there is only a few hand marks simply spray some spray and wipe and wipe clean.

Another method is to use Ajax powder/jiff or gumption. Take a rag and put a little of the cleanser on the rag and than rub it over the crayon mark. After rinse the rag and wipe off the residue. Again test spot an area of the wall first to ensure the paint work does not fade.


WD40 can also be used to get marks off the wall. Spray the mark with WD40, let sit for a few minutes than wipe off.

With no hard scrubbing and the ease of use, Mr Clean Magic Eraser if our choice to get the walls looking bright and clean again.
