Zoltan,

Try using a pencil eraser and if that doesn't work, some kitchen
cleanser like comet and a wet kitchen sponge (not a rough surfaced
one). If your formica is glossy, you may or may not be able to get
back your original shine. You could also try some plastic polish or
any kind of polishing compound, just try to get a polisher whose
roughness most closely matches the finish of the formica. Obviously
it would be wise to try it on the bottom first.
