McMaster Titles' Calender
Anyone have one of these?

I just tried to use the dry erase brush to clear off the markings and its really hard...
I got the coloured markings off with little effort, but the marks made by the actual marker that came with the damn thing isn't coming off at all...

Halp, LOL, I have Xs over 3/4 of my calender and frownyfaces over most of the 4th month, haha...

Gracias

I believe you can get it off with rubbing alcohol...

Methanol or rubbing alcohol (as Jhan said) work well, or water and good old elbow grease.

You know, if you really think about it, that whole post can be taken into context as a guy who isn't getting enough action.

Nevermind. I thought it was funny. It takes some thinking, and a dirty mind. Your arm is sore, and you're going to try alcohol.... think about it COME ON PEOPLE

If you want, you can get a new one, from that office (Sorry I forgot the name of it) but its right by the elevator, on the second floor of the student centre (MUSC). They have a huge stack of them, and they don't mind students coming in and taking them. =)

Where exactly are you going to find methanol? Its toxic.
Also, window cleaner works well too, but I'm not quite sure how well acetone would work.

windshield washer fluid.


And you are not suppose to use dry erase on the calendars only washable markers.


To get rid of the dry erase put the calendar on the floor and with your foot (with paper towel underneath) rub REAL hard on the calendar. It will come off (or at least 90% of it).

I wish I knew that to start.. I've basically been chipping away at the hardened marker to get it off...

Windex...hmmm
