I sanded the wood again but the blue is still there.

My daughter put dye all over our entertainment unit for a party, and I've tried the vinegar and baking soda, and the Mr. Clean sponge, and nothing works. Its darker wood and I'm scared the color of it will change? Help! How did you figure out hairspray?

I made one exception for a birthday party and my 2 year old sneaked off with them and stained the coffee table. ARGHH!! BUT... The paste plus a good scrubbing with a dish sponge (scrubbing side) made the stain disappear without harming the wood!!! Thank you so much for the advice!!!

It got lighter in color. We tried it again, let it set for a minute and It took the stain out!!!
