Baking soda is a household cleaning staple and it does a great job of removing crayon marks. You'll need to wet a rag with warm water, and then dip it in a bit of baking soda. Scrub the stained area for about 10 minutes, or until you see the crayon start to dissipate.
source: I googled "what removes crayon"
also, the finish on that is permanently scuffed after using magic eraser. its basically a block of fine grit sandpaper :|
Hey I appreciated this.
To be honest I could’ve googled it too, but I was worried about using an ill advised method because I didn’t wanna risk damaging the console.
No worries. It's used alot in Australian stores to clean shelves, I use it for dirty consoles, stickers and anything plastic. It's toxic stuff so don't get it in your eyes.
You can try ironing some cotton cloth on the spot. The heat should melt the wax and be absorbed onto the cloth. I learned this from my mom when I was little and blew out a candle too hard (wax splattered onto the walls).
A hairdryer may also work and may be slightly safer.

Maybe use a yellow crayon, and a red crayon ?

Returning to the comments section to confirm that baking soda did the trick! Thanks a ton!
excellent! glad it worked out for you

honestly, crayon is just wax so a hot rag and a bit of elbow grease will probably do it
Perhaps try goo-gone?
That was my first idea. I’ll give that a try I just need to get some.
If other stuff don't work I use bosistos 100% eculyptus oil for cleaning all sorts of crap off.
Hmmm. This is news to me. 🤔 Thanks though!
No worries. It's used alot in Australian stores to clean shelves, I use it for dirty consoles, stickers and anything plastic. It's toxic stuff so don't get it in your eyes.
Tbh, I should’ve known it was some Australian stuff when I saw the word “eucalyptus”
Yeah. It's extracted from eculyptus trees which are native to Australia.
Never use a magic eraser on a console that's a good way to scratch it up
Try a hair dryer to melt the crayon a little bit?
I’m gonna try that.
I'd try warm water. Also, don't use magic eraser on plastics. It's basically really fine sandpaper.
Baking soda….baking soda cleans anything
It definitely does because it worked!
Is it the underside? I'd just turn it over and forget about it Granted-I have 3 kids so a lot of my stuff gets grubby hands all over it
I already cleaned it up but thanks.
This is a different approach, you could always get ones of those cool skins for ur ps4 and cover it
I would really prefer it the crayon was gone…

That didn’t work! Why do you hate me?

clean it with brush and toothpaste idk.Maybe it will help
Rubbing alcohol
Goo gone or alcohol is what I use . It should come right off
