Try putting some of your nail varnish remover on it.

its smooth yeah, but of a crossthread fabric rather than like a one moulded thing.
its kinda like the material on the bottom of tents.

wth? i dont have shit like that you crazy guy.

Watch they don't melt the plastic.

yeah, good point. i mean its very important i dont hurt the plastic, its part of something. i could just put marker over the marker but that will lok messier. but if i cant get it out of it then i may just do that.
any thoughts?

I think nail varnish remover and hairspray are your best bet.
Especially hairspray is extremely versatile. I used it for a large ink stain on my mums couch ones.

ok- i have no nail varnish emover. im a 23 yr old mle living in my own place-and im VERY masculine.
also, not ony do i not have hair spray (even if some guys do have it) i have no hair really. just stubble.
im screwed.
hmm.
besides the plastic will need to be right next to my face, i dunno how well chemicals would wipe off? (part of a sleeping bag)

Why is it so bad there's marker on your sleeping bag?
soserious
14th May 2005, 07:34 PM

Have you tried anything yet or no!
Cause if it's that important maybe you should try to find something/info out, maybe you can call a place that sell's mark'ers and they maybe able to tell you something that may work. :cool

no, i put a block of marker over one writing, but theres 3 more big.
thing is i cant spend money on it cos i cant.
so if i can find sumthing that i already have thats great. if not then i`ll mark over it for the time being at least except thatll look horrible messy.

Oh i see, sometimes we all have that money problem thingy.
soserious

yeah, i have a major money problem rightnow.
but its not really about money in this case, the sleeping bag cost me £25, or 24.99 rather, its feather insulated too. just the marker. i might just do a crazy thing with it. design. i dunno. its the hood it goes into, like its a bag thats attatched to the head end thats a hood also, you fold the bag over and roll it up from toe end first into a narrow roll-then it slips into he hood/bag and its ready to be carried/ packed. thats one of the reasons i got it. but the hood/bag has some big writing on it in marker pen.. *shrugs*
Valk

Is it the hood that came with the sleeping bag. I assume that every sleeping bag comes with something to put it in.
soserious
14th May 2005, 08:41 PM
the hood IS part of the bag.

i tried deoderant (i heard the spray can gt pen out) but it didnt work- my place just is thick with lynx spray *chokes*
door and windows open now to try to get it gone.
woo- thats stuffs pretty strong, givenme a headache.
ok, so i guess i gotta marker over it :(
hmm.

Doesnt nail polish remover only cost like £1? (I know cos i work in a shop but cant remember the exact amount)
soserious
15th May 2005, 11:23 AM
£1? thats not too bad but im kinda shy so getting moisturiser feels awkward-i doubt i could pick up some npr.
hmm, though i may ask others if they have any, does it really work?

Dont know, i think Valk suggested it. Why are you embarassed to buy it? Its like in fight club, single service friends, except, you dont have to speak to them, so theyre just single service people who you're never going to see again so does it matter what they think of you.
I work in a shop and i get blokes coming in and buying sanatary products etc and some are embarassed but i dont get why cos when im serving them i just assume theyre for their wife or something and dont even make a judgement about who this person is.
Ive bought sanatary towels for my bird before and there was no consequences at all, well, my head fell off but i doubt it was cos of buying sanatary towels. :D

i recorded fight club but missed the first part- i never see it. i see it from the fight they have alone outsidethe pub/cl;ub/bar.
no, im not bothered about sanatory topwels- bought them for family a few times.
im not predictable or easily understandable in that some things you might think would make me shy dont and others do. nail polish remover, condoms, moisturiser blah..
man im still feeling really run down. frikkin cold/flu.
