    I will let you know. I get some sometimes. I had some but my distributor wrote with a sharpie on them. So I can not sell them.
    They were nice for seconds too.
    I’m supposed to get them quarterly and I will definitely send you them.

    I probably will be back in the studio on Tuesday. I can tell you what I have then. I can try to clean the marker off.

    Isopropyl alcohol takes off permanent marker.

    Sharpie takes sharpie off. Go over what you want to remove and immediately wipe off.

    Acetone, alcohol hell even windex will remove it.

    I let it soak for a few minutes in glass cleaner then scrubbed with soap and rinsed it with water and dried it.

    Most expensive statement in marketing :p

    Just use some isopropyl alcohol. It takes sharpie off skin with very little effort, glass should be nothing.
