'permanent' markers
got marker pen on glass or any other shiny/smooth surface, then use some nail polish remover and a tissue to wipe away. n.b. test on a discreet section to see if no damage is done to surface as this can occur on some plastics.
i say this because as a chemist i work with pure acetone, and it acts as a great solvent for cleaning glassware of all but the most stubborn of stains - these i destroy with concentrated sulphuric acid.
its also great for shifting fresh(still wet/tacky) paint stains on glass or soapstone. [i make paint test samples on occasion]
