I'm glad the hydrogen peroxide is working! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-stains#post-2227791 Tue, 28 Sep 2021 05:21:01 +0000 Anonymous 2227791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hair Spay. It even can take off permanent Magic Marker. Use a cheap brand of hair spray and blot with a clean cloth or paper towel. &nbsp;If this does not work completely, try rubbing alcohol on the ink stains. &nbsp;An Oxyclean soak over night is a good idea too.. &nbsp;It takes out yellow deodorant stains from white shirts. &nbsp;I am not sure about ink. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-stains#post-2227789 Tue, 28 Sep 2021 05:07:30 +0000 ophelia 2227789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hair spray does work on ink stains, bizarrely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-stains#post-2227788 Tue, 28 Sep 2021 04:48:09 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2227788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I decided to try hydrogen peroxide, because Ihave good luck with that on other stains.

Back in my days working in a retail store, we used to use hairspray to lift ink, and it did the job. If I was going to try this today I'd aim for a hairspray with an 'old school' formulation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-stains#post-2227670 Mon, 27 Sep 2021 20:59:30 +0000 Sloper 2227670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Drat!!!<br />I've heard some good things about "The Laundress" website.
