What are the ways to remove pencil & crayon marks from the painted wall?

There are several ways to remove pencil & crayon marks from the painted wall. The method you use will depend on the age of your children, the surface that has been marked, and the type of paint you have used.

Heat method

Use a hair dryer by pointing it at the stained area. Slowly move the dryer back and forth. Keep doing this until the mark is gone or almost gone. The heat from the dryer will help liquefy the wax in the crayon which will make it easier to wipe off.

WD-40 Spray Method

Spray WD-40 on a clean white cloth and rub it over the stain. Rub with a circular motion until the stain is gone. This method works well on fresh crayon marks and stains.

Iron method

Heat iron to a medium setting and run it over the stained area. Do this until the crayon melts. Remove the wax with a dry cloth. WD-40 will work best on fresh crayon marks and stains, while the heat from the iron works best on older crayon marks and stains.

If your child or pet has drawn on your drywall with a crayon or marker, there are a number of ways to remove this stain. Start by sprinkling the area with cornstarch.
