If you don't have hairspray- it's actually the alcohol in the hairspray that removes ink so I suggest you give regular alcohol a try. Just don't rub it into the stain gently blot with a light colored absorbant towel so you can see the ink coming out... If you rub the spot you'll just make a bigger mess... Good luck...

Is it scotch guarded? I had mine scotch guarded, while my son drew on it with a pen I used rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab to take it off. Any style of alcohol works to get rid of ink yet denatured alcohol works superb. you ought to use rubbing alcohol or a gin or vodka in case you have some. Blot the stain, dont rub. positioned sufficient alcohol on there to saturate it then blot it out, do it lower back until the stains long previous. Use a rag below the fabric to seize extra air purifier if cushion if the disguise comes off. in any different case use it sparingly and practice it merely to the stains. that's advisable to objective a small hidden element of the settee to verify the alcohol wont injury it previously using it on a great section.

Alcohol/hairspray and baby wipes will get the stain out eventually. It doesn't magically wipe off you have to alternate. For instance my Grandson wrote in perm marker on my daughter's suede couch. I sprayed with hairspray, wiped/blotted with baby wipe used an old toothbrush dipped in alcohol and just alternated. I hope this works in your case. Good Luck!

Put hair spray on it then scrub it with dish soap and hot water mixed, soak it up with a dry rag. When I was little I drew on my aunts couch and that's how she got the ink out.

try hairspray!
spray it on a small part of the stain and blot it up as you go...
you could try getting one of those dye catching cloths for the laundry and blot with that...
it may take a few tries, but hairspray gets ink out of most other things!
(be sure you clean the hairspray off when you're finished.)
good luck!

carbona makes an ink removal liquid, you have to let it sit for a while and then dab at it incessantly, but it will work, its in the laundry isle at walmart
