Permanent Marker Stain Removal from Clothing
You can try to remove permanent marker stains by rinsing the stains with cold water until the water runs clear. Place the fabric on a paper towel, then saturate the stains with rubbing alcohol, using a cotton ball as a blotter. Change paper towels as necessary as it absorbs the color. Wash the garment in the hottest water possible for the fabric, adding bleach (color-safe for colored fabrics), then rinse in warm water. Unfortunately, permanent marker is called permanent for a reason and cannot always be removed.=)
try some hairspray..spray enough to dampen the shirt where you can feel it on the other side and then scrub with your knuckles together or a toothbrush
If the stain isn't too big, spray plenty of hairspray on it, then wash it in cool water & detergent. Good luck!
