  When I was little, I sometimes painted or colored on LEGO minifigures. Is there an easier solution for cleaning off the marks, especially the paint? **Glass cleaner was recommended** but after leaving them in the cup for a while (a few hours, I believe), the marker and paint faded, but it was minimal. Is there anything else I could do to remove it?
