XP: Getting pencil off of matte paint

My brother put up our Naples Panels from JCP for us for our slider (yay!) but used pencil to mark for the rod (boo).  I cannot get it off for the life of me!

It was painted SW matte duration about 2 weeks ago.  I tried googling it, and all I came up with is to repaint, which is fine since it is a really small area (and pretty hidden anyways), but thought I'd try you ladies first.

 

Magic Eraser?

Vinegar solution?

Soap and water?

Blood sweat and tears?

 

WDYT?

Re: XP: Getting pencil off of matte paint

  • Honestly, I haven't found a thing that gets stains off of Matte paint. I would try the magic eraser, but i have heard that it often makes it worse. If you have some left over paint, I would just paint that spot. I paint all surfaces of my home with a satin or semi-gloss finish for this exact reason! It dosen't look shiny, but it cleans-up super easy.
