I recently found out Shigeru Miyamoto (the creator of Mario and Zelda) likes to carry a tape measure around with him, guess how big things are, and measure them to check how close he was (lemmy.world)

Or just cut out the middleman and use isopropyl alcohol, which is what you're doing with the marker anyway, but without adding the extra ink.

Basically the same stuff as that whiteboard cleaning fluid.

    This. Also methanol, but I'd much rather use isopropanol. I know higher proof (>70 %/140 proof) ethanol also works.

    But isopropyl is the best/easiest. Just don't drink it....or methanol at that.

    Also anhydrous ethanol ~99 % ethanol, as it contains benzene or other things you don't want to consume.
