What have any of you used to remove said problem? (it might be a "highlight" pen instead of magic marker). I told her I would present this "to the world"- and she was impressed (i hope). Will see her piano on Friday. Thanks in advance. Bob Bergantino,RPT >> Any cleaner that will dissolve magic market solution might work. I had a similar situation 15 years ago, but nothing took all of it out. Ivory, being porous material, soaks up the ink. We tried sanding it out, but we wound sanding all the way through the ivory, and still saw some of the ink. Good luck. Willem Blees
