1. Hot compress method:
Gently apply hot water or steam to the printed words on the plastic or glass cup, and then gently wipe it with a cloth or sponge. This method can sometimes make the printing color fade or even disappear completely.

 

2. Alcohol scrubbing method:
Gently wipe the printed words on the plastic or glass cup with a cloth or cotton soaked in alcohol. After repeating several times, the printed words may gradually fade or disappear.

 

3. Acetone scrubbing method:
Acetone, as a strong solvent, performs well in removing stickers or ink printing on cups. Just gently wipe the printed part with a cloth soaked in acetone to gradually fade or remove it. But please note that since acetone is flammable, it should be used away from fire to ensure safety.

 

4. Nail polish remover:

Nail polish remover, because it contains ingredients that dissolve nail polish, can also be used to try to remove the printing on the cup. Just dip a cotton swab in an appropriate amount of nail polish remover and gently wipe the printed area.

 

5. Eraser scrubbing method:

If the printing on the cup is not too deep, you can try to use an eraser to gently wipe it. This method can sometimes effectively remove or lighten the printing.

 

6. Sandpaper light grinding method:

If the printing on the ceramic or glass cup is not deep, you can try to use fine sandpaper to gently grind it off. However, it should be noted that this method may slightly damage the surface of the cup, so be sure to operate with caution.

 

7. Use professional cleaners:

There are cleaners on the market that are designed to remove stubborn stains. You can try to use these products to remove the printing on the cup.

 

Before trying any cleaning method, it is recommended to test it on an inconspicuous part of the cup to ensure that it will not cause damage to the cup or leave difficult-to-remove marks. If the marking is very severe, it may be difficult to remove completely and you will need to accept the reality or consider that the cup may never be restored to its original condition.
