How can I remove Sharpie from a golf disc?
Found a golf disc about three weeks ago with a name and phone number written on it with a Sharpie marker. I called the number, and it was a bussiness phone, and they had never heard of the person who was named on the disc. Its a good disc, and I would like to keep it, but without someone elses name on it.

Sorry, but nothing on the market will 100% remove Sharpie from plastic. Once it's on most types of disc golf plastics, you'll always at least see a "ghost" of the writing.My best answer is nail polish remover…not that real expensive stuff, but the dollar store stuff…cause you're going to go through alot of it.Most golfers that do the honorable thing like you did and call the number to no avail will simply Sharpie a line through the other info and write their own next to it. Leaves the disc with sort of a story, you know?

Fine grit sand paper, but don't over do it.Paint thinner might work.

Try using a baby wipe. I have two sons and my oldest loves to color on everything with permanent maker and I use baby wipes and it takes it off most of the time. Unless for some reason it has been baked into the disc. Then there is no way of getting it off. Which could be the case with the disc golf disc.

If all else fail I have the simplest solution. The solution is another SHARPIE of the same color. Try and make out another word from his name or shade it and cover the whole name. adding another shaded rectangular shape adjacent to it makes it like a designn on your golf disc.
