White Out Correction Fluid stains

Submitted by simon

You should be able to remove a White Out stain by using paint thinner or isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. Be sure to test on the item in a non-visible area before using.

It did not work Comments By: Carol

I tried to remove white out from my hands with rubbing alcohol and polish remover and it didn't work so I will have to buy paint thinner..... thanks

WOW Comments By: Anon

Paint thinner worked extremely well. Much better than scrubbing your skin until it comes off.

did not work Comments By: Pierre

Neither alcohol, nor Turpentine worked on dried White-Out stain.

Forget nail polish remover or alcohol! Comments By: Anarchy

WD-40 IS THE ONLY THING THAT WORKED!!!!! The stain was a lg. amt of white-out THAT was spilled on my Dining room table's protective "leaves"
...plastic on one side/felt on other. No harm was done! to "leave"!

WD-40 WORKS!!! Comments By: Laura

I had a huge white out stain on my desk and wood floor. WD-40 worked great removing my enormous white puddles. It wook some time to get it all gone because it was quite thick but it was rather easy

WD-40 WORKED BEAUTIFULLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Comments By: fas

Half a bottle of whiteout spilled on wood table and came right off with a few sprays of WD 40. I couldn't believe it worked.

Desolv-it Comments By: cubfan

This has got to be the best product ever. Not always easy to find but it removes dried white out. The labels on my daughter's wedding dvds were corrected and before it dried someone stacked them on top of each other. I was horrified. Just like magic it removed it. No harm done even when I had to wipe the dvd.
