I've tried an alcohol pad but very slow and tedious

Lacquer thinner will take it off, test on inconspicuous spot first.

I believe lacquer thinner will work.

Dry erase marker! Yep, it works. Go over the sharpie marks with a dry erase marker and wipe it off.

That was about the only thing that wasn't suggested.

Do it quickly. Don't let the LT set on the formica. Wet the paper towel with it, wipe quickly and dry it with a clean towel... do it quickly... and like Phil said: test on inconspicuous spot first
