I have acquired a record that has a bright orange highlighter pen on the label. Does anyone have any suggestions for how i might remove it safely without damaging the label?

Someone suggested nail varnish remover, however i'm a little concerned this might cause some damage! Anyone have any bright ideas!

To the best of my knowledge, nail varnish remover MAY work, you need something that will get into the paper but not leave a trace, highlighters 'sink in' to the paper, rather than leaving a surface mark like a ballpoint. I can only wish you good luck with this....

learn to live with it ( imho )
