Alcohol or other solvents like Acetone work, but another easy trick a lot of people aren't aware of is to go over a permanent marker with a dry erase marker, and then wipe it off.
I shit you not, it works. We tested this across several whiteboards. First in inconspicuous spots, then on main parts of the board. Occasionally there was some residue remaining if the permanent marker stayed on for long, but the solvent they use in dry erase markers also erases permanent marker material.
YMMV on a tape measure though...
Even though this is a dick joke, I'd use isopropyl or ethanol no higher than 70%. Acetone tends to strip/degrade paint and if on a plastic substrate could degrade the plastic.
Source: I work in an analytical lab for plastics and paints and I have made many mistakes.
Acetone will work if nothing else works, but it's just as likely to strip the underlaying paint off. You can mostly use alcohol to clean it and apply some acetone just on the actual stain with a qtip, that makes it less likely to be noticeable.
Itll work but...It's sharpie. I can take sharpie off a smooth surface with a kimwipe and elbow grease. Acetone is overkill and likely to damage your surface if it's paint or plastic yo. Use a less aggressive solvent. Also we've destroyed a whiteboard or two with acetone.
