- Skin: Wash promptly with soap and warm water. Repeat as necessary.
- Clothing: For best results, wash promptly in cold or hot wash cycle. Do not use prewash or chlorine bleach. Repeat laundering may be required.

6. Troubleshooting
If a marker appears dry or is not performing optimally:
- Rehydration: If a cap is left off and the marker dries out, you can attempt to rehydrate it. Soak the tip in a small amount of water for approximately 30 seconds. Replace the cap firmly and then balance the marker upright, cap side down, for about 24 hours. This may help restore ink flow.
- Ink Transfer: While highly washable, some surfaces may require more effort for complete removal. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
