Anyone know how to remove watercolor paint stains from the surface of Gator Board? I've tried many things... Goo Gone; alcohol; hydrogen peroxide; Simple Green; Bar Keeper's Friend; Fantastic; OxyClean (in various forms); probably some others I can't recall right now. I don't think I've tried Clorox, mainly because we don't keep any of that around.

I know I shouldn't concern myself with this kind of minutiae, but I can't help myself. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

By this time you have spent so much money on chemicals you could have gotten new Gatorboard.. ROTFLOL!

There's a paint called "Kilz". Supposed to cover anything. Might work in this matter. But you wouldn't be able to paint over it with watercolor.. Maybe with Oils or Acrylic.

Thanks, David. I'm not actually painting on the Gator Board. I use it like some folks use plywood, as a backup to hold my paper. The stains don't interfere with that, I just don't like them. They make me feel dirty. But thanks for the input.
