You can try the magic eraser I think it's called sefog hapela. It works like a charm! Good Luck

More Likely Target- its made by Mr. clean- the magic eraser

Yes to magic eraser!! Also, rubbing alcohol works.

I once heard that silver polish does a great job on walls

Just be careful with the eraser and test a small spot because I used it and it took off some paint.

If nothing works, take some of the leftover paint and just cover it up. That might be easier than getting rid of the stain.

first of all, don't kill her. Second of all... do you have a shaklee lady near you? can someone give you a blob of the shaklee scouring paste to try? it's removed the impossible from my walls without a single mark.

NO, don't use the eraser, even thought I love it for a lot of tasks, it totally ruined both my kitchen wallpaper, and my room wall. I used it to remove marker and now (abt. a year later) there still are spots on the wall (the color got lighter in that area). How about trying Goo-gone. That usually does the trick for me.
