How To Remove Permanent Marker From Golf Balls

Cleaning Golf Balls

Posted by: user20126 [FORUM MODERATOR] | Thu 11th Dec 2008 18:41 | Final Reply

Can anybody tell me what the best mode to clean a golf ball is?

I don't mean the dirt, I'm taking well-nigh marker pen and other marks.

My own way of marker a golf game ball is to put a black dot each side of the maker'south proper noun.

Only I'd like to clean some of the golf balls I find so that they wait better and are non covered in marks.

I use a brillo pad and fairy liquid. Works great.

I don't mean my own golf game balls....  lol

It was more to do with the golf balls I detect when out on the course.

Some of the golf game balls take been in the pond quite a while and I was simply wondering if at that place was a way to clean off all the dirt.

Besides I demand to remove the marks put on by the previous owner.

"As well I need to remove the marks put on past the previous owner."

Why?  Equally long as you can identify your brawl, does it thing how it was marked past the previous owner?

Russ.  If you want to get permanent marker off a dry out-wipe board or a laminated item then if you use a dry out-wipe pen over the top of the permanent marker marks and so wipe it off it takes the permanent marking marks off with it.  Don't know how it works - merely it does.

I don't know if it would work with golf balls but if you are that desperate......

Thanks for that Andy, I'll have to requite information technology a try.

Information technology is amazing the markings you discover on some golf assurance.

I bet it takes some of these people longer to mark their golf ball than it does to lose it!

Never mind, another golf ball for my collection!

I would have thought brake fluid would have taken the cover off the ball, let solitary marker pen.

I volition give this a test run and see if information technology works.

Had a few moments to spare in the shed today so thought I'd accept a go using various unsafe chemicals to remove marker pen from golf balls.  The following don't piece of work -

Paint stripper, brush cleaner, acetone, DOT 5 brake fluid and glass carving acid.

Hydrochloric acid and neat genkleen de-greaser piece of work but tend to take the rest of the paint off as well.

News just in

Did you know if you put a ball in trichloroethylene (I believe a now controlled industrial degreaser) it reacts with the ionmer skin, turns it blackness and then melts it?  Must get in through the splits in the paint.  I think the marker pen came off but I tin can't be absolutely certain because information technology looks like its been in the oven for several hours.  Will endeavour and post a picture tommorow...
